Our sunny weekend in Tlayacapan

This past weekend we went to a city about an hour away - not very far....but a huge change in the weather. We were able to wear shorts and t-short and thought about going to a water park...but decided to save that money and just enjoy ourselves. We headed here to buy some pottery before going home next week. This place has streets full of stores and places to buy pottery made by the people themselves. It was a great weekend.


We also were able to enjoy the food.....of course, here in Mexico, the food is the best. I have no problem admitting that. Actually, the best food can be found on the streets or in Fondas (simply a market style place with tons of people cooking different things in their stand...homemade and delicious!) At each stand, there is someone ready to get you to sit at their location and eat their food. Enough to offer samples as you walk all the way through. If we were different, we could easily walk around the whole place several times and fill up for free....but no, this is there business and they need the money. So, if you are ever in Mexico....you must go to a fonda....or eat on the street. I promise you -it's better and cheaper than the restaurants!

I love seeing all the pottery. Wish we had gone there. Makes me want more pottery. I love the big pots.
