Grandma and Grandpa Ricketts came to visit us a few days after Christmas. It was so fun! We brought them to Bioparque Estrella on their first day with us. We had beautiful weather, and almost had the park entirely to ourselves!
This is the restaurant we found on the way back from the Bioparque. I think it was called Don Tono's. We, well the kids especially, were excited to eat in a restaurant with a giant sombrero on top. I just remember they served chips with beans with some sort of meat grease on top, which sounds really gross, but it was sooooo good!
We visited La Huasteca, another of the mountains that surround our valley, and which is very close to Jake's school. This was a first for us as well. The sediments in the rock are pretty much vertical instead of horizontal, and very jagged. Pretty amazing.
Cuentos que no son Cuento (Bedtime Stories) was showing at the theater here in English, so we had to go see it. Once a new movie comes out, it is shown in English for a few days, then only in Spanish. We do love to go to the movies. It is pretty inexpensive and we get to relax in these leather recliners!
Andy brought us to Las Lechugitas for lunch one day, and it was so good we had to go back for a second visit!
Here, we are visiting Cascada Cola de Caballo. The waterfall is beautiful, but the churros and fried potatoes-on-a-stick are just as enjoyable!
We visited this old church in a little town called Santiago.
This is the view of San Pedro from near the top of Chipinque, a mountain overlooking our town. I love this picture of Larry and Vicki!
Grandpa, Andy, Jake and Grace all go-kart raced... Grandpa won!
