Mexico's 200th Celebration of Independance

Yesterday, 15 de Septiembre was the national celebration of Independence Day in Mexico. We went to Casa Hogar Douglas for a traditional celebration complete  with pledge to the flag, singing the national anthem and other patriotic songs and a parade by Mexican school children  followed by a wonderful Mexican buffet. So good and tasty. The party continued back at LDM (the B2B campus) with fireworks and salsa music and dancing.
