Wow, it has been a fast paced two months! I meant to update after returning from Mexico, but I got sick (blah!) and then Anna arrived from Ireland! So, here I go…
Dad, JT and I had been planning on taking a trip to Mexico to see my “family” there (the Mejias with whom I stayed for two months my senior year of high school). It just wasn’t working out and so I had resigned myself to not going, when my dad gets home from running errands and says, “How fast can you pack?” We went and had a great time! We were able to eat at my favorite restaurant (Los Mixes), climb the pyramids of Teotihuacan, tour Aguascalientes and Zacatecas, see the beautiful mountains of Veracruz, the cactus filled deserts around Monterrey, and get way off the beaten path! Here is One of the thousands of beautiful churches we saw, and here, one of the common sights that gives Mexico its flavor.
In case you were wondering, yes, we drove, and had no problems. It was about the same distance as from here to Utah. I would highly recommend driving, you miss so much if you fly! We drove through melon country, strawberry country, and pretty much every other fruit you can imagine!
Unfortunately, I’m going to have to leave you in suspense for now, I have places to be!!!
Thank you Anna, for the friendly reminder that I needed to update!!!!!!
Wow, those strawberrys look great.
It is nice to hear you had a good time.
