“Cielito Lindo” is that song we all know with the refrain “ay ay ay ay….”  I heard it every night in Guanajuato, as the three part harmony of local singers and happy visitors wafted up the hill to my house in Cerro Del Cuarto. “Cielito lindo” is a term of endearment that will always remind me of my six weeks in Mexico, where I leaned a little Spanish and did a little writing and, most important, met a lot of wonderful people.    

My last couple of weeks there were full of friends and family. Gabe and Alex visited for a week, followed by Rosie from Seattle. We hung out on the hill in Guanajuato….

We visited charming San Miguel de Allende, an hour south of Guanajuato…..

 

 

 

And spent a couple of days in Mexico City….

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It was hard to say adios to Mexico and the wonderful friends I met there but “yo voy a regresar”.
