The Day of the Dead!


XTreme

Recommended Posts

Public Holiday today in Spain....Día de los Muertos....The Day of the Dead! Though we always think of it as "The Day we Dodged the Bullet".

It also marks 15 years to the day since we got here, so it was only right to celebrate the occasion with a bit of Styling and Profiling.

All done within the perimeters of this area of course......as per the latest Covid directives!

What you see in the pics and vid is not some obscure farm track, it's actually the only direct "road" that connects two towns!

Those are great looking roads ?

 

I don't get this 'day of the dead' thing.  My mother-in-law (being Italian) is all over it , but I just don't get it.  It's sooooooooo bloody negative, all that wailing and moaning  .  It get's on my nerves to be honest, why not celebrate people who have passed on in a positive way ?

It's a Catholic thing Bob! Don't ask me!

Catholics are guilty by nature, always feeling sorry or asking forgiveness, they don’t do happy.

It’s not a national holiday, though, yesterday was. And I’m all for national holidays, mainly when there is no confinement in place.
