Jan. 5-7. Left Juchitán for a couple of days to celebrate Melanie's birthday in the beach city of Huatulco. We ate Italian food, shopped for silver, went swimming in the ocean, and got massages.

A three hour bus ride from Juchitan to Astata for a weekend party celebrating the city saint. Lots of vendors, people, rides, music, food and drink.

We took along hammocks and stayed overnight on the "corredor" of an Astata resident.

The church in Astata; housed inside are the relics that people have come to see and be blessed by. In the foreground you see the vendors and a bit of the crowds.
