Last week was Semana Santa, a big holiday in México--in fact, my office closed the entire week! Two years ago I was in PST and spent the holiday in Querétaro. Last year I was in Monterrey and stayed in town (going to a local baseball game!). This year, I went to visit some friends in the state of Guanajuato, saw a museum exhibit in Mexico City, and stayed in town for the rest of it.
A view of the city where my friends live.
Abandoned mine shaft.
Temporary exhibit in "Carlos Slim's" museum in Mexico City. At least the entrance was free--the man is rich enough!
The streets of my town were carpeted for Semana Santa!
