So, San Miguel de Allende wasn't anything like what we expected. We got here this morning by bus and kind of just spent the day wandering around. I think Mom and I both expected it to be more like a mini-America since there are apparently so many Americans that choose this city to retire in. I don't quite understand why. It's pretty and quaint but definitely nothing special. I think I'll want a little more interesting place to retire in. The church in the center of town was pretty cool though. It reminded me a little of the Disneyland castle.

For dinner tonight, one of the guys who works at our hotel recommended a place called
La Bugambilia because it is "
la más tradicional." Well, the place served far from traditional Mexican food but I had an excellent American-ish chicken fillet in a tangy orange sauce. Also, it was the first time I'd seen real wheat bread since I left! Yummy yummy. Mom ordered a margarita which then had to be followed by a decaf coffee and flan before we could walk home. Such a lightweight. I love her. Haha.
Tomorrow morning we're off to Mexico City. I'm a tad bit nervous security wise, but I'm really looking forward to seeing the Anthropology Museum and Teotihuacan. :)
