Aug 18, 2011 - Cuernavaca 2

So I am soon to start my homeward journey. Tonight I am heading on the bus to Guadalajara. I have booked a room there for 3 nights. Once I get there I will start looking into cross border options and get home towards the end of this month. My back is feeling better and my allergies as well. I am fairly rested after doing almost nothing in Cuernavaca. Hopefully I will have more energy in Guadalajara.

Nous restons chez différentes amies et connaissances de Marie et sa mère. Les quelques attractifs de Cuernavaca sont le Palais de Cortez, forteresse transforme en musée, le...

Feb 8, 2008 - Cuernaveca and Taxco

Took a tour to Taxco today which is the place where silver is mined. We also went via Cuernaveca which was a place that even the Habsburg`s came to for holidays when they were the rulers of Spain and hence Mexico as well. Those Austrians got flipping everywhere eh! The current El Presidentie has a place there and many other famous writers and painters have had holiday homes there due to the excellent climate ie. boiling the whole time (felt like it to this wee white Scots boy anyways). Saw another cathedral ( getting bored of them yet?),...
