San Miguel de Allende Mexico Independence Day September 2008

This is a slide show of the Independence Day celebrations held September 15, 2008 in San Miguel de Allende, Guananjuato, Mexico. A light rain falls, the bells of the Parroquia church toll and the crowd sings along to the Mexican National Anthem as fireworks explode.
Every September 15th Mexicans celebrate Roman Catholic priest Miguel Hidalgo's 1810 "grito" or call for independence when he launched a revolt against Spanish rule by ringing a church bell and shouting "Viva Mexico" to a cheering crowd.

We are very saddened at the terrible events that occurred in Morelia, Michoacan at the same time we were celebrating in San Miguel. Someone must stop the insanity in this beautiful country!

Nos dan mucha tristeza los eventos que pasaron en la cuidad de Morelia al mismo tiempo que celebrabamos en San Miguel. Alguien debe poner fin a la violencia en este pais hermoso!
