Parade for Nino de Atocha photos by Don and Lois Porter 2/18/2002 |
Walking by the market one morning, we unexpectedly came upon a parade honoring El Niño de Atocha, a saint who specializes in children. The "giant" costumes are reminiscent of the Mohigangos we saw last year in the Cabalgata parades in Colima.
