What you have been waiting for….


 

A little Mezcal, a Burro, a field of Cactus,  a Crown of Thorns bread-roll, a Sombrero and a Mariachi band! A proposal on horseback! This is the Mexico you have been waiting for…

On Saturday night after dinner we went for a wander up to the main square (the Jardin) there were families parading around, vendors selling ice-cream, mariachi bands, a brass band and a procession with dress up figures an engagement on horseback… you name it, it was happening.
