We are having a magical time exploring the Mexican highlands in our tour of #sanmigueldeallende this week. And we still have more time before we have to say hasta luega! From #tacos to #margaritas to #tortas and #enchiladas, we are eating and drinking it all. We’ve been in awe of La Parroquia de San Miguel Arcangel, the iconic church. We’ve explored architectural sites, watched mariachi bands play, tried our hands at painting and made a delicious meal in a fun #cookingclass. The whimsical mojigangas (giant puppets) leading joyful celebrations through the streets of #sanmiguel are truly a sight to see!
