Veracruz, Mexico
Saturday, January 21, 2006
Bus picked us up at 8:30 am to go on tour. Were driven to downtown Veracruz and to Gran Café del Portal for breakfast. They still had their Christmas decorations in place. When I asked the guide about it he said they celebrate 3 Kings Day on Jan 6 and then leave the decorations up till La Candelaria on Feb 2. The restaurant is famous for their café au lait and it was delicious. After breakfast we walked around the downtown and zocalo until the bus picked us up again and took us to Fortress of San Juan de Ulua. We were given a tour by the tour guide who was also our guide on the bus. We were then taken to Walmart were we were given an hour to shop. We looked for a Wi-Fi card but they didn't have one. When we returned to the RV park Doug walked to the Office Depot and purchased a card there.
We went again to Villa Rica for dinner. It was delicious as it had been the night before.
