Back to Tequisquiapan

We returned to Tequisquiapan and spent a few days resting from our trip. Homer and Nancy left us and headed for the good ole USA. They must have set a new record on their return trip. They made it back in a day (about 800 miles). We enjoyed their company.

Our last Saturday night in Tequis, we enjoyed a night at the plaza restaurant. That evening Maria’s entire family (about eight of them) joined in song and entertained us with a variety of musical instruments and their harmonic voices. A great evening!

Sadly, we left Teqis August 31 and continued our journey into Mexico. Next stop is Paracho, home of the world famous guitar factory in Mexico. Thanks to Pete, Jemina and Papa Gene, we had a very pleasant stay.
