I remember one evening when I walked up to the JardÃn and saw a castillo, the traditional fireworks tower that explodes higher and higher until finally a flaming disk flies right up into the sky. It was set up in front of the Parroquia and started its fiery climb just as I arrived. After enjoying the sparking, sparkling spectacle for awhile, I wandered down Cuna de Allende to one of my favorite cafes, El Ten-Ten Pie. I asked Juan, the owner, what the occasion was, why the fireworks.
He thought a minute. "What day is it?" he asked.
