Christmas in Gringolandia

Whenever I mentioned San Miguel de Allende to the locals in the previous towns, they referred to it as Gringolandia. It is true that I saw more white people here than all the other towns combined, but it is a beautiful city with a thriving art scene. Our hosts, Doug and Brianne spoiled us with amazing accommodations  as well as a ridiculous amount of delicious food. It's also great to see Sarah as well as Alison and Rob. 

3 wise men of San Miguel de Allende.

We followed this procession through the streets. Each night, Mary and Joseph wander the streets looking for a place to stay and are turned away until Christmas.

Nativity in the Jardin.

Off to Morelia, where the cathedrals are amazing.

The governors palace had great murals, this one on a ceiling.


Chillin' at the palace.

Eating at Los Pioneros. Muy delicioso.
