Caption: There is an annual tradition to stuff human-sized clothes like a doll. Some are stuffed only with sawdust, some include fireworks.

These old man years or #viejos are then sat out in front of the house, or are the representative of a neighborhood. At midnight on #newyearseve they get burned or exploded.
.
It’s such an interesting way of letting go of the old year. Reflecting on the days, in gratitude for life, which so many are grateful for here.
.
And it’s a way to say hello to the new year with hope and light in our hearts.

???????????? Happy New Year
