We fell in love with magical Patzcuaro in Michoacan, Mexico. So in 2004 we renovated an abandoned house from which to enjoy this colonial pueblo with its Purhepecha Indian presence.

Please do. Thank you, Rich.
I really enjoy going to Patzcuaro`s popular Market.I simply love the colors, the smells , the "cheering" people seelling or buying very fresh fruit,vegetables,fish....It´s a real wonderful experience must see!!!
Miguel, I appreciate your enthusiasm. It really is a sensory pleasure.
Nice memories. It's also an amazing thing viewed from above - unless you're paying attention, at first you're not apt to realize the tarps overhead are all different colors.
And since I considered tall any of the locals who stood taller than my shoulder height, I was constantly on the lookout for eye-popping (literally) metal tubes, and constantly ducking.
Here in Uruguay we have férias in different places on different days, with exceptionally fresh produce, none of which, as far as I can tell, comes from more than a couple hundred kilometers away. Usually you can buy at least two kinds of incredibly fresh lettuce, a couple varieties of tomatoes, fish from the ocean a few blocks away.
Alas, no Oaxaca cheese or corn tortillas ("tor-TI-zhas" ;-)
