Thanksgiving in Mexico

Thanksgiving break. Though far from home, but with my mom.

 Rays of the setting sun bring special charm to the Tulum ruins:

Chichen Itza:

 
Two times a year it can be seen how a shadow of snake crawls down the stairs.
If you clap your hands in front of the stairs, you can hear cries of some bird in the echo.

 

Valladolid by day and night:

 

Performance at the park of Shkaret:

Tailgate. Go Tigers

Here at Mizzou passion for football is the must. Before every domestic game people gather to have some beer and food outdoors. They call it pre-gaming or tailgate.

Dress-code is "Mizzou gear".

 

 

 

According to wikipedia : "Many people participate even if their vehicles do not have tailgates." 

Another fact about tailgating taken from wikipedia: " Tailgating typically involves the consumption of alcoholic beverages or soft drinks and the grilling of various meat products"

 Pets are also very welcome:

 When the game starts people head to the stadium ​​or to one of the many Columbia pubs to watch it:

After the game, actually as on any other weekend night, it is a party time. Great idea do have some snacks before going out.
