| Contrary
to what we had heard, crossing the border at Tijuana was no problem at
all. The arid landscape of the northern Baja California was fascinating
with cactuses as tall as houses. From La Paz we sailed overnight to Mazatlan
on the mainland. The Colonial heartland and silver region with their cities Zacatecas, Guanajuato and San Miguel de Allende (UNESCO world heritage) gave us plenty to see. The many baroque churches, cathedrals, museums and colonial buildings had us touring these towns for hours. Mexico, what a wonderful and interesting country! |
