| I'm sad that it's our last day here. Working "from home" in Mexico has been absolutely wonderful. Queretaro is a wonderful city and we've thoroughly enjoyed everything about being here. | |
| Miracle of miracles - we got a message this morning from WestJet saying that we're confirmed on our flight from YVR to YEG. I guess we're actually going home. | |

After my spectacular night's sleep last night, I felt much better than I have the last couple of days. I worked for a while, then we went for breakfast at my favorite square (outdoor seating), then I worked for a while, then we went walkabout in Centro Sur. Then, one last visit to Taco Tucson, where we had some awesome tacos and we both enjoyed a 1L cup of guayaba (guava) juice.
After dinner we headed back to La Encantada to have a quiet beer on the roof, but the city had other plans. Apparently tonight was the night for a feminist march that came by right underneath our building, circled around El Tanque, and then returned from whence they came. We're a little disappointed that they vandalized El Tanque in the process. |

Breakfast near Monument of the Corregidora
I really like having meals at this little square. It's one of the few places that has outdoor seating.
We had Café de Olla. -
