San Miguel de Allende in Mexico, a UNESCO World Heritage site, has a few rooftop bars with a view. Here are the churches of the Centro viewed from the top of the Rosewood Hotel at dusk on a warm February evening.

Got back recently from a trip to San Miguel de Allende in Mexico. My sister had a big party. There were dancers! Have you ever seen costumes anything like this?

Our typical Seattle endless gray wintertime weather is kind of getting to me. I need brightness and color. Here are some painted boxes from my trip to Mexico in March.

In San Miguel de Allende, an art and tourist mecca in central Mexico, I went to a beautiful former factory, La Fabrica Aurora, which is now a shopping heaven. In the courtyard were these display of roses. Which are prettier, lavender or pink?

Since the streets and sidewalks are quite uneven in San Miguel de Allende (vast understatement!), strollers just don’t cut it.

Many of the roofs in San Miguel de Allende in Mexico have plants in pots at the roof’s edge over the street. I do wonder about earthquakes, if not high winds.

I was charmed by the colors the building walls were painted in the central district in San Miguel, a UNESCO World Heritage site. They go so well with the blue sky!

Two views of the interior, one above the other, of the Parroquía church in San Miguel de Allende, in Mexico. I have never seen bricked vaulted ceilings anywhere but in San Miguel.

The high ceiling of the famed Parroquía church is vaulted and covered with brickwork. I do worry about earthquakes when I see such a ceiling.
