At the top of Cerro del Tesoro with our friends Jose, Aurora, Lisset and Josecito. Amazing view from here, including a great distant vista of Popocatepetl, a volcano some distance away.
On our way down from the peak, we came across a very poor neighborhood, with houses made of laminate, wooden posts, plastic and pieces of cloth.
A nearby barbed-wire fence serves as a clothesline.
On another very different occasion, a sister of a friend of a friend invited us to a wedding at La Santisima, a small church downtown. (You'll read more about this below.)
On the night of January 6, Los Reyes Magos visit children across Mexico, bringing gifts to those whose letters they like and who are well-behaved. Lea had help writing her letter (in Spanish of course) from Lisset. And, lo and behold, the next morning Los Reyes had brought her a stuffed doggie, which she promptly named "Huesos" or "Bones."
In front of our casita.
