Mayan Worry Dolls

The legend says if we are troubled with something we shoulc tell our troubles to a Maya Worry Doll. Then place the doll under our pillow and have a good night sleep. The following morning our troubles are gone. Here they are...some of these ladies

I thought that these dolls would be around all year long here in Merida...every time I come here (sometime between Easter and the end of August)I buy loads of them to distribute to my troubled friends. So, I was amazed to find out that there aren't any at this time of the year. These Dolls are a seasonal item that only show up during Easter, Summer, around Dia de Los Muertos and then before Christmas.
