Snapshots and thoughts from Mexico City. I'm correspondent for Swedish TV in Mexico. Usually my own cameraman and Final Cut editor. Love Mexico City, this huge town that's really a lot of small towns glued together.

Dödas Dag i Oaxaca, Mexiko. Kyrkogårdarna badar i gult från cempaxochitl-blommorna.Utanför Xoxo-kyrkogården spelar en ungdomsorkester med bleckblås, träblås, violiner, pukor och andra rytminstrument. Regnet börjar strila stilla medan några eleganta ädre par reser sig för att visa hur man dansar till denna långsamma gungande musik. Danzón enligt Wikipedia:

Danzón is the official genre and dance of Cuba.[1] It is also an active musical form in Mexico and is still beloved in Puerto Rico. The danzón evolved from the Cuban Habanera (known inside and outside of Cuba as the habanera). Originally, the contradanza was of English origin and was most likely introduced by three different ways to Cuba in 1762 with the invasion of the British to Havana, Spanish colonists, and French colonists (who were fleeing the Haitian Revolution of 1791 to 1804).[2]In Cuba, these dances were influenced by African rhythmic and dance styles and so became a genuine fusion of European and African influences.[3]
