Today marked the beginning of Semana Santa or Holy Week. In Mexico, people often take vacations and many folks head to beach cities. We can remember this week during our initial retirement winter in Puerto Vallarta. The beaches were packed with folks who'd driven from Guadalajara and the surrounding areas.
Now, six years later, we're a bit north in Mazatlan where this is usually one of the biggest tourist weekends of the year. Things surely must be a bit calmer due to COVID-19; however, we saw many more folks in the Centro than on a usual Sunday. The pictures added here were taken at the main cathedral.
