Taxco was gorgeous and Hotel Mi Casita really beautiful. All you girlies out there would have loved both. Wall to wall silver shops and arcades with really narrow steep cobbled streets and old, old buildings. It was founded in the 16 century just after the conquest when the Spaniards were looking for tin. Of course they found silver instead....
Mi Casita overlooks the Csthedral and has 12 individually furnished rooms, all with wonderful tiled bathrooms.
Bought two silver rings - one with a whole fire opal set into it, still in its geode, and the other with amber from Chiapas. Thank you DEM for my birthday presents:)
Off to Queretaro in the morning - hope there's an internet connection where I'm staying. x
