Puppy travels in Mexico

---

Hey Eddie, Kirsten, and Benny.

Oh, and Gage and Jayden and all our other little cousins and friends, too!


I have been travelling all over Mexico with Grandpa Chuck and Grandma Leila.


I am very excited that they decided to bring me along on their trip.


I have been to Monte Alban, the Pacific Coast beaches in Oaxaca, and San Cristobal de las Casas.


Monte Alban is an archaeological ruin site that was once occupied by the Mixtec and Zapotec indigenous people. There were many structures and carvings to see.


The Pacific Coast beach towns were a lot of fun. We went for walks along the beaches and ate a lot of seafood; shrimp, octopus, clams, ceviche and even a lobster that was bigger than me.


We are now in San Cristobal de las Casas, an old colonial town high up in a mountain valley. We went to a restaurant that had stores selling items made by and about members of the Zapatista communities. The Zapatistas are struggling for rights for Mexican indigenous people.


We will be leaving San Cristobal in a couple of days.


Grandpa Chuck and Grandma Leila say we have one more stop to make in Mexico, in the town of Comitan, and then we are going into Guatemala.


I have been having fun and learning much about the culture and history of Mexico.


I will write more after we have spent some time in Guatemala.


Grandpa Chuck and Grandma Leila send their love.


Wish you were here with us; we think of you every day.
