I never really knew about the holiday's origin until I looked it up today. I had no idea that it had to do with the French occupation. Like most Americans, I mistakenly thought it was Mexican Independence Day.

I was glad to learn otherwise.

To commemorate cinco de mayo, I drew a picture for my website. I think it's funny. Click my name to see it.

Hi colintheriot,

Thanks a million for stopping by - I highly appreciate that indeed!

I guess the vast majority of people thinks, Cinco de mayo is what you thought - that it's Mexican Independence Day ... and to tell you the truth - I thought the same!
I love the picture you drew - you're a great artist - thanks so much for sharing!!

Thanks again for visiting - I hope to see you soon again!
