Today is El Dia De Los Muertos (The Day Of the Dead), A Mexican tradition in which we commemorate our beloved ones that have passed away. In Mexico, people go to cemetaries and bring food to the graves of their beloved ones. It is said that on that day the dead come to live. they come and visit us and there spirits are around. the food that is given is said for them to attract their spirits to come.

During my senior year in high school. I was in a club called M.E.Ch.A.
For El Dia De Los Muertos we made an altar (altar). It was difficult because we had some obstacles with people. They were against it because they said that it was a religious thing and that it could not be brought in school. But we didnt give up and we made it..

Here are a few pictures of it:
