- Today, Mexican families will gather to eat, drink, and celebrate, and they\ll be joined by…""Those who\ve already left this mortal coil
- These beaded skulls are ready for display in a city known for its celebrations…""That welcome back the souls of the dead to the land of the living
- After the Spanish arrived here, they rescheduled the locals\ holiday honoring the dead so it would coincide with a Christian one.""What\s that Christian holiday called?
- These ornaments are examples of the highly specialized craftsmanship in this part of Mexico. Copper goods come from one town, lace comes from another, and so on.""They\ll all be on full display during today\s festivities in this state
