2015 Trip to Mexico

Jan 30, 2015   We are delighted to be in Mexico once again!

When we speak about our trips to Mexico, people often ask if we aren't afraid of all the narco-violence. My usual response is to speak about how friendly the people are, and how lively the cities are.  I describe how much we enjoy visiting city parks at night, like the one pictured above. There is usually music and the streets are always filled with families and couples (young and old) walking arm in arm enjoying the cool evening air. Whether it is a weeknight or weekend, they are shopping, eating in open air cafes, listening to free concerts, (or listening to strolling mariachis) occasionally dancing, or just hanging out with friends. Compare this to parks in any US city on any night of the week.
