San Miguel de Allende

We took a day off from riding in San Miguel de Allende and it's an interesting place full of Americans.  It's beautiful, but I don't like being surrounded by elderly American retirees complaining that a restaurant doesn't accept credit cards.  This is the first place we've seen or heard another American since the customs station on our entry to Mexico.  The food is good, although expensive - and we were able to buy a couple of bottles of red wine and a bottle of Flor de Cana 5 year rum that they don't import to New Orleans anymore, so that's a plus.  We are trying to find a blanket to purchase as we plan on camping in Guanajuato tomorrow night.  So far it's all tourist stores selling overpriced clothes and silver jewelry.  Our hotel is cool, though - an old Monastery in a good location at a low price.

I did our laundry in the sink and hung it out to dry and you even get a picture of that!  100% of the socks are now clean!!  Not much in the way of good photos of this place, even though it's extremely beautiful.  I'm ready to get out of here and away from all these Americans.
