Cinco De Mayo
Happy Cinco De Mayo!
This day is primarily a regional, and not a federal, holiday in Mexico, the date is observed in the United States and other locations around the world as a celebration of Mexican heritage and pride. It commemorates an initial victory of Mexican forces led by General Ignacio Zaragoza Seguin over French forces in the Battle of Puebla on May 5, 1862.
Although not many in America know the real meaning or reason for this holiday…we do celebrate it with drinking alcohol until we can’t stand anymore and waking up with a hangover the next morning and no memory of what we did the night before…but we know we had fun!! Hehe!
