The "Posadas" (Lodging, accomodation) is a series of festivities (originated in Mexico, but also celebrated in Guatemala and other parts of Latin America) that begin in Dec. 16 until the 24th and recreate the Inn story of the Nativity of Jesus.

When people "Pide posada" (ask for accomodation) they sing the part where Joseph and Mary look for a place to spend the night to give birth to baby Jesus, as well as the times they get rejected by the people inside the house (for fears of being thieves), until they finally are welcome inside.

Just please don't mind the immigrant caravan

Fun fact, when Mary and Joseph are finally welcome inside, the housekeeper sings "entren santos peregrinos!" (come inside holy pilgrims/immigrants)

So it's only fitting that Mexico and the gang would use that beautiful tradition to try to get into America's house?

Oh my gosh, this sounds like a great Christmas tradition- like a December version of trick-or-treat, and with irony too.

I liked the fact that El Salvador actually was a perfect fit for Baby Jesus, since he is the saviour

(and a central american that also tries to enter the USA)

Feliz Navidad :P
