Happy Mexican Independence my friends!
09/16/2012
Mexican Independence Day is a major celebration in Mexico and is much bigger than Cinco de Mayo.
It is celebrated with a fiesta. The celebrating begins on September 15 (the eve of Independence Day) where crowds of people gather in the zocalos (town meeting place) of cities, towns, and villages.
In Mexico City a huge square is decorated with flags, flowers and lights of red, white, and green. People sell confetti, whistles, horns, paper-machete helmets, and toys in the colors of red, white and green.
There is also plenty of feasting! When the clock strikes eleven o'clock the crowd gets silent. On the last strike of eleven the president of Mexico steps out on the palace balcony, and rings the historic liberty bell that Father Hidalgo rang to call the people. Then the president gives the Grito de Delores. He shouts "Viva Mexico" "Viva la independencia" and the crowd echoes back. People do this at the same time all across Mexico. While the crowd says this they fill the air with confetti, streamers and hoopla. Castillos explode in showers of red, white, and green.
Happy independence day! What better way to celebrate than with a tequila or margarita toast this weekend!

From the founder of Tributo.
Hard to believe it’s been 11 years since the 9-11 attacks. Over time, certain feelings have become as solid as the memorials to the victims — feelings of patriotism, reflection, remembrance, regained confidence and hope that we can start to move forward.
On this day, our thoughts are with all Americans — but in particular with those who lost family members on that fateful Tuesday.
