We spent a long few days making our way across the country. It’s a surprisingly long way from Mexico City to the Pacific Coast. After San Miguel we made the short fifty mile hop on over to Guanajuato. From there it was 200 miles to Guadalajara, which has, quite frankly, … Read More
Atotonilco
El Santuario de Atotonilco. This is where Hidalgo led his men after their fight for Independence began. From this church they took a banner of the Virgin of Guadalupe, and fought the Spaniards under this as their flag. The town of Atotonilco is a dusty Mexican town. On Sundays there is … Read More
Detour for Patricia
It’s time to get back to the beach. Our plan was to leave Teotihuacan today and begin heading towards the coast. Hurricane Patricia had other plans. So we headed a bit north and decided to visit San Miguel de Allende again. There are certainly worse things. Hot air balloons filled … Read More

Around Portland
The other day Lowe asked Ouest if she wanted to play photo booth. I’d never heard of this before, but within seconds he was dressing her up in boas and taking her picture. They played this for days, giggling the whole time. The pictures below are theirs, obviously. We’ve been … Read More
