Some friends and I had a weekend getaway to a town called Real de Catorce. If you've ever seen Brad Pitt and Julia Roberts in "The Mexican," that's where I was. To get there we had to travel through this tunnel. It was the main way in and out of the city. On the way in we were piled in the back of a truck...
...and on the way out we piled into a horse-pulled wagon. The tunnel was over a mile long and pretty dusty.
This is Leah and Rosalyn, new teacher friends.
This is a fraction of the outdoor market. There were stands spread all over the town. Most of the streets looked like this. We shopped all day on Saturday and bought gifts for others as well as plenty for ourselves. :)
This is the view from the rooftop at our hotel ($45 USD a night for 2 double beds). This is about 1/4 of the town. It wasn't big at all.
More pictures to come!
