First Decorations

Mexican Independence Day, the most important day in Mexico's history, will soon be upon us. Decorations such as these will soon be commonplace throughout the country, but these outside my bolillo shop are the first I have seen (and therefore photographed). I am excited as we will be in Mexico on the actual day, 16 September, for only the second time since moving here in 2010. There are supposed to be parades and celebrations - I can't wait.
