Happy Cinco de Mayo 2012!

Calendar showing May 5thToday is the day that we celebrate all things Mexican, May 5th! Mariachi bands, sombrerors, dancing, the clothing, the beautiful Mexican blankets, the food and let's not forget the frosty Margarita or siestas!

John McCormack who is close to the festivities in Albuquerque has been keeping us aware of all things Cinco de Mayo this week and building the excitement. 

Today will be a day of celebration and paradesand many people will be celebrating whether they are Mexican or not. We are not from or in Puebla and we understand that there is more celebrations north of the Mexican border than south, but it is May 5th, and that means it is Happy Cinco de Mayo day!Happy Cinco De Mayo Sign

Happy Cinco de Mayo 2012 Al and Peggy!  Thank you for the mention.

Yep the parties began yesterday and will run through Sunday night. Albuquerque is a buzz with Cinco de Mayo celebrations just about around the clock!  It's a huge deal then again we are in New Mexico :) 

Debbie and I are heading to Santa Fe for a mini Rain meet up brunch then back to Albuquerque to enjoy the Cinco party in Old Town and hope to shoot the Super Moon Rise at 9:35 tonight.  It's a full day but wanted to drop by and wish you both an awesome weekend.

We have the added bonus of it being our anniversary.  So no excuses and this evening will find us on the waterfront at a fabulous Mexican restaurant.

Somehow I think that Cinco de Mayo has lost it's meaning over the last few years.

Al & Peggy, I usually look forward to Cinco de Mayo and this year is no different, but because of work and the time I had to visit my local favorite Mexican Restaurant...well let's just say I couldn't get near the place...way too many celebrants ahead of me.

Al and Peggy I knew that that Cinco de Mayo was popular here in the US, but I did not realize that it is celebrated by more people here than in Mexico.

Oh darn, I missed it this year Al and Peggy, it must have been because of all that hoopla surrounding the super moon. Is it too late to have a couple of margaritas?
