Well before taking off this morning for a new adventure to Delores Hildago a town steeped in Hostory as the place the Mexican people fought for their independence from Spain very Historical. Yesterday we had a really fun time just hanging out at one of the local Hot spring Spas. The four pools at this one were all different temperaures from pretty warmm to Hot! This one was very unique in that it had a water cave you go through to reach a large area to soak in. The water was so hot but the atmosphere was very cool! Arrived on the bus which dropped us right outside the door very easy as this is a little ways out of town. The cost per person was 80 pesos which is about 7$ US so not bad for us but shocking I am sure for local Mexican families. I asked Hugo if they gave discount for locals but they don't so most probably never go to them just the richer Mexican toursists. He says they go about once or twice a year as a splurge. The grounds were very pretty and park like except you can't bring any outside food or beverages.
Main Pool
Did a lot of lounging here. Of course I barely got out of the water just going from pool to pool eavesdropping on everyones conversation LOL Pretty funny the gringos trying to speak spanish and the Mexicans trying to understand and practice too. That being said it was nice that the prices were not to steep for beer and food and the food was delicious. Anyways, we are off to explore but just wanted to post a few pictures of the area. Have a great day everyone, Wish you were here!

San Miguel de Allende
In the Dec. 2010 issue of Smithonian magazine there is an article of this town. An American, Stirling Dickinson, arrived there in 1937 and turned it into an international art center. He's buried there and a bust of him stands on a street bearing his name. Love your blog, Crystal
