Target language: Engels

Tens of horsemen left yesterday, Sunday, from this municipality toward Puerto Palomas de Villa and Columbus and their leavetaking to Casas Grandes is expected for today.

It was at 10 am sharp that the knights made a line at one of the sides of the main square of the municipality of Galena, where the lowering of flags marked the start of their way along the determined route.

Soon afterwards the cavalcade headed, in line, to Puerto del Chocolate, arriving in Nuevo Casas Grandes yesterday afternoon.

Today, at 10 o'clock, mayor Dagoberto Quintana Cano is holding an official ceremony in which the leavetaking to the municipality of Janos will take place.

After that, the knights will keep going to La AscensciÃ³n to get to Ejido 6 de Enero, Palomas de Villa and entering U.S territory to Columbus on Saturday morning.

There, a "friendly taking" of the village will take place to start soon afterwards a cultural event at Pancho Villa Museum in this small town in the state of New Mexico.

"a" in Spanish is understood as: to, in the direction of, so I still think that the correct preposition to be used is "to" Columbus. What do you think?
