Trip Log

Notes Actions
We were going to go to La Pena de Bernal and Tequisquiapan with Laura today, but we decided to postpone that. The weather was kinda crappy this morning, Laura took a fall yesterday, and if we wait until next weekend, maybe Elissa can come with us.

We thought about taking a bus to San Juan del Rio, where Laura lives, to have a visit with her, but we couldn't get a ticket for the local transit to get to the regional bus depot. The local transit only accepts scannable cards, not cash, and we can only buy those scannable cards during the week. We could have taken a cab, or walked, but ultimately, we decided to stay in Queretaro for today and see Laura another time soon.
Walking around Queretaro today was wonderful. We walked through Centro, which was alive with Sunday markets through plaza after plaza, and then walked the lovely pathway along Rio Queretaro.

Queretaro has some bicycle infrastructure, and we found lots of bike lanes. Maybe we'll go for a ride one day soon. We just need to figure out where to rent bicycles.
