Sabado at the beach

Semana Santa is the week before Easter and THE biggest holiday vacation in Mazatlan. Tens of thousands of Mexican vacationers head for the beach with their families. We joined them on Saturday.

Paquito, always ready for a good time, and the life of any party no matter how large, donned his Mexican wrestling mask and a straw hat. I would say it was for anonymity but all day long friends of his kept recognizing him with a big "Que onda Paco?"


We called him "Macho Libre".
Macho got an invite to the stage to participate in a dance contest.




The beach was packed.



Paco Senior recognized the leader of the band as being from the barrio and joined him for a song and did a little dancing as well.
