Here in the provinces, we don't really celebrate Haloween. But 'Undas", AKA All Saints Day shuts the country down. (Nov 1).
Everyone goes home to visit the graves of their loved ones: they clean the grave up, place flowers and candles, and then stay awhile to chat with relatives, pray, and eat a snack.
I sent the maid to clean up Lolo's grave and Joy and I will buy flowers and go there tomorrow: hopefully it will not be too hot or too crowded.
Sigh.
