Hotel Meson de la Merced Queretaro

Enfin je peut dire que laventure a reelement commence, je nai plus a arpenter les commerces avec des CV dans mon sac.

Enfin cest le temps de voyager pour vrai !

Apres 14 heures dautobus, je debarque a la station nord de la ville a 7H du matin et je prend un taxi jusquau Mexico city Hostel, recommende chaudement dans le Lonely Planet. Endroit tres agreable, ou tous les services sont offerts, en en plus je suis a 2 coins de rue de ...

... Sunny Delight, cafe and cup of fruit.
Landing in Santiago did not appear to be anything. I could not see a town or much. Not many trees. Mountains though.
So, Santiago was where we needed to leave and get my bags, but upon going through customs, we were told we have to pay the reciprocity fee of $131 dollars each just to go get my bag and take a flight. I was defeated but Nick was ...

... chiudesse!! Molto suggestiva la casa museo, il giorno dopo siamo andati a vedere la casa studio che aveva con Diego Rivera, ma abbiamo potuto visitare solo la casa di lui, quella di Frida era in fase di restauro.
Siccome se ne parlava sulla guida siamo andati a vedere il santuario della santa morte, pare un culto molto sentito e venerato, mi aspettavo una struttura piuttosto sontuosa e trascendentale, invece mi sono trovata davanti a una statua in una stanza con una tipa che ti ...

... top of Aztec culture. I think I need to run or something. Or just maybe not visit the tequila factory until AFTER I sacrifice my heart to the sun god. But it was cool to see for a while at least. So when we actually returned to the hostel and I was nursing my sore legs, heart palpitations, and third degree sunburn the Brit (Dave) in our room came up with the best idea I had heard all day ...

... com/quer/hotelplaza . This overlooks the zocalo but the interior of the hotel did need sprucing up a little. Their current rates were 300 + 350 peso for one or two persons.

Jirafa Roja Hostel 20 de Noviembre No.72, Tel: 01 (442) 212-4825, www.jirafarojahostel.com . This excellent youth hostel benefitted from a good location ...

CAR OUI CA Y EST JE L'AI le billet pour Cuba et j'y vais le 26 mars pour 15 jours le pied total, j'arrive meme pas a y croire.

... and the emotion so deep, you couldn't help but me mesmorized. It was exotic! There was this announcer who explained a bit about the Chinese exhibition in Spanish. It was just so nice seeing two cultures come together in harmony. I LOVE culture! At the end of the dance all the Chinese dancers came out holding either a Mexican or Chinese flag....showing mutual respect for the respective cutlures. Amazing! Bravo! I applauded until I was the only one left clapping ...

... Despite the noise, I have found the town to be utterly charming, with some great restaurants. A plus for the village is that it has less traffic than one usually sees. In addition, the streets around the town square are pedestrian only. We entered Mexico at McAllen two weeks ago and took the cuota (toll road) through Monterrey and south to San Luis Potosi. We stopped for a visit at ...

... quesadillas, chilaquiles (kind of like nachos), etc. that a girl can take before she's ready for a change! Yes, even Kristy can get tired of cheese...those of you who know how much I love cheese must be shocked, but it's true. It's not so much that I miss American food, but I miss variety. Here in Querétaro, a city of 1 million people, there really is not a big variety in food offerings. I can't wait to get back and eat some good Thai or Indian food. Granted, I could cook ...

... was now about noon which meant time for a beer in the plaza. We watched workers trim trees in unusual shapes with their machetes. There were other sites visited or at least viewed, including a technical school, a few other plazas and a couple important government buildings. In one of the plazas an elderly man started a conversation with us in English. He had been working with a 19 year old teaching him English. He was most anxious ...
