Estamos en Mexico



Adam: Aieeeeeeeeeee! We have arrived. After five days of rather ridiculous driving, we are resting here in Guanajuato, MX. The border was a breeze and three states of Mexico long and wide open. This town is rich with life and history. Above, three centuries of bulidings and color, below, a winding maze of vehicle tunnels, once used to divert a river now underground. It was here that the Mexican Independence was declared, and many battles fought. (Supposedly the blood ran machete deep) We are enjoying it´s fruits and breezes on our first day of rest. I had to rip this picture from Google, as my camera won´t plug in to this ancient slow computer.


Talon likes hotels and kids, he has been very cool with long days and walks. Needless to say, he has many questions (Why does she have just one tooth? Do superheroes fight police? Why is that cow so skinny?) Eliot likes Talon and music, he remains our entertainment. He is getting used to the Latin Beauties chasing him down, picking him up, giving him kisses and stroking his hair. They don´t do it to me so much anymore. Cora is feverously curious and happy with sweet little things, as usual. I remain a shaggy-headed gringo, content to walk a new street.


Hopefully, we´ll be in Cholula, our destination, in a few days. here, we can settle in and leave the hard life of the road behind for a while. I can´t believe we drove to this place.... Continents are really big. Email me and I´ll write back. Love you all.
