Mexico 2019, Day #6 - My 'Last Day' - Rooftop Tanning and Fancy Dinner

Image
Friday, March 8, 2019 Today was what I thought was my last day in Mexico but more on that later. Mom and Lorna had to go to Puerto Vallarta for mom's passport problem because the lady in Guadalajara was horrible. She kept saying 'if' they issue the travel document, as if it was unlikely that they would. And had they issued it in Guadalajara, my mom would have had to pick it up from there. So she would have had to either spend the night there and come back on Saturday morning or drive back. Neither option was ideal. So the other ladies and I slept in a bit after the last few eventful days. I made them breakfast after we had some coffee on the rooftop patio. We spent the rest of the day soaking up the sun and relaxing with our books or chatting. I had mentioned to Salvador when we were in Guanajuato that I wanted to go out dancing on my last night in Mexico. He said we'd go out so us ladies got all dolle...

Wednesday, March 6, 2019 This day started off with breakfast in this beautiful building. This painting depicts some legends of Guanajuato. This building used to be a grainery! Our hotel - Hotel Hacienda de Cobos The view from the street by the La Valenciana Church/mine La Valenciana Church, side view Un perro, su nombre es Pintor. (A dog, his name is Painter) Pintor!! He was enjoying the head scritches. These paintings were huge! I can't even guess how big.. Pinter followed us on our tour lol. The mouth of the Valenciana Mine. This painting depicts a mine worker mining by candlelight since they didn't have electricity back then. Some miners actually went blind from coming out during the day and going into the sunlight from the dark mine. Salvador!! Christine and mom. Auntie Lorna...
