Rosario surprises her nephews with a few cascarones, hollowed out eggs full of confetti (luckily these weren’t full of flour!). This is a great example of the innocent play and spontaneous laughter that fills our time in Tijuana.

I love that it’s one of the kids that has to clean up the mess!
This cacarones is a century tradition of Carnaval de Mazatlán. I feel so much nostalgy!
Los cascarones rellenos de confetti son una tradición de más de 100 años del Carnaval de Mazatlán… bueno, lo eran porque a alguna “autoridad” se le ocurrió desde mediados de los años 90’s prohibirlos por “peligrosos”. Espero que algún dÃa vuelva esta alegre e inofensiva expresión de la cultura popular. Saludos desde Mazatlán.
