Well, this was a surprise

Our love story was published in The Oregonian for Valentine’s Day.

Mummy Museum

Originally, the mummified bodies were kept in an underground ossuary. It’s likely that there was never an intent to display them for the public.

The Cemetery Panteón Santa Paula

What makes this cemetery remarkable to me are the walls and walls of remains interred seven stories high.

Alhóndiga y Universidad (Grain Exchange and University)

Two more landmarks I want to talk about are the Alhóndiga de Granaditas and Universidad de Guanajuato.

Guanajuato’s Streets

There is a tragic tale reminiscent of Romeo & Juliet that captures the hearts of locals and tourists and sends them in search of the narrowest of streets.

Landmarks, Statues, and Monuments

A very old city like this one has many, many sites of interest.

Above and Below Guanajuato

In this post, my focus takes in landmarks that are above the city of Guanajuato, and also below the city.

Journey to San Miguel de Allende

Our journey was all about the birth of Mexican independence. And family, of course.

Pípila y Diego Rivera

I am not used to this kind of welcome, with family scattered all over the same city, and everyone trying to get in on it.

Our spot in Guanajuato

When I saw photos of Guanajuato for the first time, I realized where Pedro got his love of colours.
