Oaxaca November 14-22, 2022 A magical place to relax and explore โค๏ธ


The drive from Cholula to Oaxaca was beautiful

We passed the tallest volcano in Mexico, Pico de Orizaba.

I love me some bugs!

We had some nice walks down the country roads in El Tule, Oaxaca

He does this on his own. I really donโ€™t make him.

Mountain View from our campground


We found some treats along the way

A neighbor was busy with his new sculpture

I really loved his dragon ๐Ÿ‰

We found some lizards

They are so happy to see me



I jogged a bit around the country roads until I found a better route into town

This guy was amazing

Lots of beautiful creatures

$100 pesos for 12. Thatโ€™s about $5 US

The sky was so blue




We found this beauty! The owner was proud to show it to us. I asked, โ€œSe vende?โ€ He said No


This is the place to buy your Mezcal

We walked into town, El Tule.


They have a very nice centro with a market, vendors and restaurants.


Mexicoโ€™s famous tree

Lots of color and murals everywhere




Small church on the corner



My Corona King ๐Ÿ‘‘



Some of our walks resembled hikesโ€ฆ.This was a road






Me and the big tree

Me jogging by the sign


Everyone loves a Woody!

Thatโ€™s a bull with his own stereo!

We rode our bikes around a lot!





We found this fabulous lake on one bike ride.









The eight ball! Fabulous place for breakfast after our hike around the lake.

Art ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ

And cheap! About $5.50 US

We stumbled across this cute village on the way back. Santo Domingo Tomaltepec

I loved the orange!


Heโ€™s being Corny! ๐ŸŒฝ


Biking to the lake is a big deal. See all those folks?!






Not sure if you should eat theseโ€ฆ. They were sweet ๐Ÿ˜Š

Iโ€™m really enjoying the cacti ๐ŸŒต


Is it pokey Larry?





Heโ€™s daring me to catch him


We made a few trips into Oaxaca. We mostly just walked around





I thought this was awesome!

The basket and bottle were real- not painted


We love these big gates


Heโ€™s so happy!


They had some amazing spiders. None crawled into the trailer.๐Ÿ˜€๐Ÿ™





A ginormous moth!

Fabulous sunset

The day came when we said goodbye to our friends Ross and Jacques. We enjoyed staying at their little paradise. We relaxed and rejuvenated with our good friends.


Loved the sign but didnโ€™t buy any mezcal


Beautiful scenery on this road.

Rest stop

It was a lovely drive through incredible mountains

Agave for Mezcal of course

El Camaron. I had to take this picture for my son Cameron


The C had a Saxophone too. I thought that was so cool

We arrived in Salina Cruz!!!!
