Feliz Navidad

Well, here it is, Christmas eve.  We have been busy talking to friends and family on the phone and taking part in some of the park activities.   Our beach has a fair number of people on it, mostly Mexican families camping in the park.  Lots of kids and dogs and even a few pampered cats.

Christmas eve is the major celebration in Mexico.  Tomorrow is a day to recover.

Here in the park, the Mexican, Canadian and American campers gather at the park office to sing Christmas carols in English and Spanish.  Then comes the best part.  The bashing of the piñatas!

First the little kids then the bigger ones.   When the piñata goes down all the kids rush in and grab candy and small prizes.  It was loads of fun.

We wish you all a Merry Christmas and to all a Buenas Noches!
