Guanajuato from on high

Legs were sore from yesterday so we did a driving tour. Guanajuato (aka GTO) is in a valley of high mountains. Robin just read that it looks like 2 frogs so that's why we see ceramic frogs everywhere. Anyway, we climbed the mountain cobble stone roads in our beloved Saturn taking a zillion pictures.
























We stopped at a popular place in the road and our new best friend Francisco guided us into a slot that had to be illegal. 10 peso (58 cents) coin and we got the point at the eye signal that says he'd watch the car and no problem with the police. Then we bought 2 great GTO picture and story books for $8 and that sealed it...BFF's. Seriously, though, he was a nice guy trying to make a living and wasn't trying to screw us.

We then continued down the hill and stopped for lunch. Since we blew it out yesterday at the Italian themed restaurant, more simple is good. And it was. Except. The nice ladies screwed up and forgot our order...for 1 hour. OMG! Ridiculous! I never screwed up orders when we owned a restaurant!!! Oh. Wait. I did. A lot. The food came and it was good. $8.70 for both of us including bevs. We had fun chatting for that hour. All is great.
