Day Two in S.M. Mexico

Today we ate breakfast here at the house we are staying. Well sort of a house, it has four bedrooms on one side of an open court, two bathrooms and the kitchen on the other side. You have to get dressed to go to the bathroom or kitchen. Anyway after breakfast we walked in a different direction and found the Mega market for food, walked around looking at what was offered and decided what we wanted to buy. Must have spent a good two hours just looking, came back to the house and put our stuff away and took a nap before going to lunch.
During lunch we talked about our first impressions of San Miguel, and it seems neither one of us are impressed with what we have seen so far. It does not live up to all the build up we have read about it. Do not get me wrong it is a nice place to visit just do not want to live here.. Lot like Mexico City or New York, nice to visit but not for me to live.

After lunch we did some more walking and decided to take the trolley tour of the city. Found the ticket office with no problem, then had to find a place to wait for an hour, so that meant coffee time.. Picked up a copy of the local paper that comes out on Friday ( mostly in English ), sat down to read and wait.

Once on the trolley we were driven down one hill and up the other. Lots of information, only problem is we did not slow down or stop except twice. For the most part I could not point out the "famous places" because by the time english was used we had passed them already.





























After the tour we went to find the thearter to find out what was playing and if we would like to go. Found it but could not find any information on what if anything was going on. Whatever....

From the thearter we went to find Mama Mia's to see what all the fuss was about. It is a nice place and the Pina Colada was very good, pizza was so so.. I think it would be a fun place to go late at night if one did not walk around all day. But we did not stay for the night life, headed back to the house.




Walking back we ran into a parade for what looked like a small circus. Not a clue were it was going or when it would be, but got a few good photos.



















































































Once back I worked on getting all the photos edited and resized, Kay had tea, then went to bed. So ends day to in SM.
