Sightseeing in Queretaro

Yesterday was busy visiting many of the sites that visitors to Queretaro come to see. After a leisurly breakfast at the hotel, we headed down to visit the Ex-Convento of Santa Cruz. Dom reallyenjoys taking photos there. He's really learning quickly how to frame a good picture. After that, it was just a short walk down to an overlook where we got to see the 300 year old aquaduct. This 1.25 km arched structure was built to transport water to the old city. We had an excellent lunch at La Mariposa. This restsursnt/diner/cafeteria looks just like it did in 1940 when it opened. They also serve very tasty enchiladas. How many 10 year olds do you know who like museums? Well, Dom does! After a short rest, we headed to the Museum of Art and the Regional Museum to see some interesting collections. As we had a very late lunch, we just snacked for dinner while hanging out in the plazas people watching snd enjoying the street entertainers. Today, we travel to San Miguel de Allende for two nights.

  1. I always liked museums too. Dominick sounds like he is a good travel companion and he seems to be having a great time. Thank you for giving him this opportunity.
