Mexico 3-2011 chap 3

Chap 3 San Miguel de Allende, MX
Had a great day walking around San Miguel.  Ran into a nice couple from Minnesota and ate lunch with them.  Ate dinner with Phillis, friend of Britt's mother, Dianne.  Sadly Dianne died a year ago.  Phillis and her friend, Gill, live in San Miguel.  They showed us their home (fabulous and the exact home we would have if we lived in Mexico) and took us to eat (delicious shrimp and steak).  We really enjoyed them.  What a great evening.

Left San Miguel and drive to ruins near Penjamo,  Plazuelos Ruins.  Amazing!  Walked around an hour there.  Way up in a hill.  Community lasted 300 years, 600-900 a.d.  Chipped stone blocks out of mountain to build their community .  

Some nice Mexicans introduced themselves, asked about Cloud and asked why we were there.  Visited with them a few minutes.  They lived nearby and were fiends.  When we finished our tour they were I'm the parking lot eating snacks and offered to share.  Quesadillas and mandarin juice.  Delicious ! Just got into Ajijik.  Dead tired and waiting for Ada, the mother of a friend of Jen's.  She is taking us to our hotel.
