Viva México!


View of San Miguel de Allende from the Plaza de Toros
Visiting Shannon's father in San Miguel de Allende, Guanajuato, Mexico.  Two weeks was not nearly enough time.

We toured the historic colonial city of Guanajuato, thanks to Bo's friend Ellen Snyder

Ellen also took us to see the town Dolores Hidalgo

We checked out the Botanical Gardens at San Miguel
Don't they grow huge asparagus!
Of course that is a giant agave plant.

We had a great visit with Abuelito.
