Our pastorela tour started – and ended – in Santa Fe de la Laguna.  After walking and driving around the village, we found the roving group of dancers and musicians.

 

Baby Jesus led the procession.

 

Children, dressed for the occasion, followed the dancers on their journey.

 
Musicians, wearing traditional Michoacán sombreros, performed in front of homes and businesses.

 

Lots of smiles!

 

Great introduction to pastorelas – music, dancing, and costumes.
