   Old Mexico was quite different from now. So much color and lovely culture in the past. Remarkable.

     Mexican cinema, literature and music is still ascendant because it takes a mixture of native American, and European styles of music to create a unique blend. German immigrants with their tubas and accordions had a big influence on old-fashioned Mexican music and you can still hear it in a lot of their songs.

   I love this scene. The aged walls with the beautiful murals. A wonderful contrast.
