Dia de los Muertos, Day of the Dead is a celebration observed by numerous cultures where they remember, pray for and celebrate the lives of friends and family who have passed over. Today Larry and I went to Seattle Center to participate in this yearly event, we had a great time! From the minute we walked through the door we felt part of this festive event. The ambiance was one of folklore, love and much laughter. Many of the traditional dances, pastries, painted sugar skulls, face painting and even the art of making marigolds (the flower used in remembrance) engulfed the building. Here are just a few photos from this amazing day.
