Dia de Los Muertos

We always seem to arrive in Patzcuaro about 10 days after the festivities, and really enjoy looking at the, by then dried, beautiful things that have been built and placed in the pantheons. Yesterday we realized that instead of missing out yet again, why not leave home 2 weeks earlier, and arrive for Dia de Los Muertos? Yes, that will also have us arriving in Zihua early. A win win situation!
We are quite familiar with Patzcuaro and the area, usually spending several days there traveling to and from Zihua. What are the must see and dos during the end of October and early November? From what we understand, the city will be very full and bustling.
