May 15, 2017. Walked about 10 km taking photos, went nowhere in particulr, which is always the best place.

Tijuana

Image
March 20, 2016. I spent the day visiting Tijuana, Mexico. You can take the city train to the border and walk across to the city - you have to traverse a couple of highways and a river to get to the central area, so it's a bit of a hike (8km in total for me). It was more than a three hour wait to get through customs on the way back, which really is just ridiculous. From Flickr http://ift.tt/25fN62D

Parroquia de San Pedro Apóstol

Image
August 29, 2015. It's a rare opportunity to be able to photograph inside a church during a ceremony, but one presented itself today as this celebraation, photographed by many, was the cumulation of a march from Parroquia de San Pedro Apóstol to the plaza on Independencia Eje in Tlaquepaque. It was loud, with trumpets and drums, it ws colourful, and it was unexpected. I wandered around the area and then hiked for a total of 17km back to my hotel. From Flickr http://ift.tt/1JHbb49

Laguna de Chapala

August 28, 2015. Today we took a day trip outside of the city south to Laguna de Chapala, pictured here. We wandered around the houses and shorlines of Chapala and also Ajijic (which, I was told, contained many Canadians). From Flickr http://ift.tt/1KsbuVt
