Craft Market ...

October 30, 2013

After touring Parroquia de San Miguel Archangel ...
we stopped for lunch ... before heading to the craft market ...
enjoying a Mexican dish ... Chicken Fajitas ... beans ... tortilla chips and hot salsa 

Totally overwhelmed seeing all the displays at the ...
"Mercado de Artesanias"
The market runs at an angle down three or four blocks ...
you can enter it at several locations ...
grateful for the signs on the buildings ...
pointing the way ...
You can pretty well buy everything there ... souvenirs ...
including textiles, ceramics, pottery, jewellery...
products made of wood, leather, and natural fibres ... aluminum ...
also a whole assortment of food ... traditional dishes ...

It is an extremely colourful sight ...
we spent quite a bit of time walking thru ... and purchasing a few trinkets ...
before we had to travel back to the house ... to meet the kids arriving back from school ... 

Mom & dad brought home this cute little pottery Tea Set for Ella ...
she also was given this handmade bracelet ...
 
After dinner we all went back to Queretaro ...
as Katie had a Roller Derby practise ...
preparing for their competition for Nationals on the weekend ...
in Guadalajara, Mexico

Nov. 11 ...  Nathan hope you are feeling better ...
after separating your shoulder ...
 roller blading with the family on Sunday ... !!!
wishing you a speedy recovery ...
