At breakfast we have a group meeting. We break the news that the Butterfly reserve
is closed. We tell about several
options. Everyone agrees that they would
really like to do something with nature.
Going to another colonial city is more of the same. With that information, Juan and I go to the
drawing board. There are hot springs in
the direction of the butterfly reserves and there are waterfalls in Uruapan
(back past Morelia). We think we can do
both of those if we stay overnight at the hot springs.
So on with the day.
Juan does an optional walking tour while I do more checking on alternative
plans for tomorrow. After the walking
tour, I meet up with Michelle. We have
lunch in the market and poke around in the mercado artisanal. Michelle would like to find an animal mask. We have a quest. After many stalls, stores, galleries, we
think we may have found a good one. It
is at the very top of a very tall display.
The woman finds a ladder. Finds
the extension tool to be able to reach further.
Stretch! Stretch! Oh no!
It’s tumbling down! It doesn’t
break and Michelle likes it. Quest
complete. That calls for some ice cream
in the park. I head back to the hotel
and Michelle continues poking around.
Several hours later, people gather in the courtyard of the hotel sharing
purchases and stories. The others rave
about the restaurant where they had lunch.
About the hat salesman who wore a stack of hats about 10 feet high and
how he sold 4 hats to people in our group.
They all look very spiffy!
Dinner is at a terrace restaurant. I made reservations but didn’t go up to look
at it. What? There isn’t an elevator to
take us up there and it is like 4 flights up?
The call of dinner is enough to get us all up there. The view is nice and the food was good
too.
