Last Friday preschoolers in Oaxaca city celebrated their Spring Parade.
They began at the corner of Alcala and Berriozabal St. I´m the proud mother of the frog holding his sign "El Agua es Vida, Cuídala". Many memories came back, I was also five when I parade as a flower. The costume were so diverse, many parents put their best efforts creating all kinds of creatures (butterflies, Snails, frogs, cows, dogs, panthers, bears, rabbits, tigers, etc. I salute the oaxacans artistic skills, using fabric, ribbons, paper, plastic, etc. Thirty seven years ago in Oaxaca, water wasn´t an issue. This year the children were beautiful and almost everyone was holding a very important message: AGUA.
