We exited the bus and entered the streets in the midst of a parade, but unlike other parades this celebration was staged. Music, headdress, and confetti created a warm, festive scene. No doubt, local residents considered us their guests of honor. Such fanfare might not exist for everyone who enters San Martin Tilcajete, but after an […]
Llegamos a Diego’s en la Zona Dorada dos horas antes de puesta del sol. Comimos camarones, tomamos las cervezas y placticamos de México. Era una buena tarde.
