Mexico celebrates El Día de Los Muertos on November 1st and 2nd.  If you and your family are interested in observing some traditional costumes in a non-traditional way, there will be a 5K El Día de Los Muertos Run in Southwest.  If you choose to participate, you are encouraged to wear traditional costumes but perfectly welcome to wear every day running gear.  After the race, runners can explore Mexican Town and grab a yummy bite of Mexican food to eat (I suggest Lupita’s Taquería as an option, it is cash only but very reasonably priced and yummy for a snack!).

Although I am not Mexican, I am a huge fan of Mexican cuisine!  Today would be a wonderful day to visit an area like Southwest Detroit to "probar" (try) some yummy food!  Below is a video clip from 2010 of El Grito de Dolores.  A battle cry done every midnight in Mexico to honor those who helped initiate the revolution that earned Mexico it's independence!

Arts, Beats & Eats in Royal Oak

Some Spanish-speaking friends and I visited Arts, Beats & Eats on Friday to watch Flamenco dancing on the International Stage.  Keep an eye out for "La Chispa" when they return to Royal Oak next year.  The performance is free to watch after entry into the festival and great exposure to Spanish dancing you generally won't see this side of the Atlantic!
