Concert and Día del Niño

The last week or so has been the Festival Palafoxiano in Puebla, where they invite a ton of international musicians to play in public. Friday night we listened to Felippa Giordano (Italian pop-opera singer)--and the Zocalo was packed! They had a fenced off area, and I almost didn't make it in even though I got there 40 minutes early!!



Saturday was April 30th, which in Mexico is Día del Niño, or Kid's Day! So of course we had to do kids stuff! First we saw some acrobats at a cultural complex. They were pretty cool and worked with a portable rig. Next up as a puzzle--in less than 24 hours, we managed to solve this 1000 piece puzzle. The most impressive thing though, was that when we were shopping for the puzzle, we saw a 32,000 piece puzzle!! Craziness...
