Your love and appreciation of this city really shows in this blog. Thanks for the background history. I had no idea that so many people had met their demise under that brutal regime. The city itself looks very beautiful with its stunning architecture that you shared in your photos. Makes me want to visit there:) Thanks so much for sending this to us. We always look forward to hearing about your travel adventures.

Meanwhile.... back home in Canada
The weather is turning a bit cold, and alas, there is very little precipitation .... no rain on the coast & no snow in Bragg Creek area. Wishing you continued enjoyable travels. Abrazos.
