The art of day of dead is beautiful because there are many colors. It is like "papel picado" and music.
is a very festive day.
When it is day of the dead, I feel very happy.

In a far away country, well, actually not THAT far away, just in Brasil, some Kilometers away, on November 5th, I missed only 2 things of home: the language (portugese is really difficult) and the day of the dead.
I asked someone : "você comemorar o dia dos mortos?" if they celebrated it, with very little hope, I did'nt really think they did, actually, I was more aware for an answer like "não, não, volte de onde você está, se é isso que você está procurando (no, we don't, go back from where you are if that's what you're looking for)" but they said, yes, then, a boy called Juan said that a witch had controlled the state, but he said I was the only one to save him because he had a very bad father.
