On New Year’s Day, under warm sunny blue skies, my friend Gail and I walked in a parade through the streets of Ajijic. We had gone to “Open Circle” in the grounds of the Lake Chapala Society that morning, and heard about the parade and the fact that we gringos were needed to join the ranks and show our support for the peace initiatives which have been started in this area. We headed on over to Calle Ocampo and joined in. We had a wonderful time and got lots of cheers along the way. What a high that was!
I’ve attached a few pictures which were sent to me by friends because we hadn’t thought to bring along our cameras that morning. If you want to see more great pictures of the parade, visit my friend Steve’s website at:
