Cinco De Mayo Parade |
We were adventurous this past month along with thousands of other people and headed to the Cindo de mayo parade that was held here in Puebla. Cinco de mayo is a holiday held on May 5 that commemorates the Mexican army's victory over French forces at the Battle of Puebla on May 5, 1862. Going against the popular belief, Cinco de mayo is not the Mexican Independence Day as this is September 16. Many schools traveled from all over the state of Puebla to participate in this parade showing off their uniforms, their school band and their school float that, as you will see, they spent quite a bit of time on. Also included are a few short videos of the parade that you may enjoy. Have a great Memorial Day Weekend!
