Here in Guadalajara (at least 4 million people) enjoying the sights and mariachis (& tequila). Been here since last Friday but have been so busy that we haven't had a chance to update the blog. Sorry it's taken so long. We finally got a respite from the seafood (Lupe's happy). The town center is amazing huge and very elaborate...we walked for at least a half hour and still didn't reach the end. The people have been as hospitable as ever but alas we have to leave tomorrow and move on to Tepatitlan...will try to write again when we have a chance but as always we never know what Internet access is going to be like...
Here are some pictures of our travels...
Preparing the agave plant for the ovens in Amatitan at the Herradura tequila plant.
At a radio station (Radio Mujer) after doing a live broadcast.
Looking toward a massive museum that used to be an orphanage. The man who designed and masterminded the project was Fray Antonio Alcalde. He was responsible for the Civil Hospital in Guadalajara (where Lupe was born) as well as the orphanage. He also headed up projects all over Latin America...must have been a very busy man.
