Day of the Dead celebrations: "La Catrina" #DayoftheDead #diademuertos

People in Mexico painted their faces and got dressed up as the iconic Mexican skeleton "La Catrina" for pre-Day of the Dead celebrations over the weekend.

The parade is one of the city’s many events for Dia de Muertos (November 2), a pre-Hispanic tradition in which families remember their dead - including their pets -- and celebrate the continuity of life.
