Mexico

A short country in this directory and a long one in memory: two houses, one city, and a booking form standing between you and both.

One city so far, and a country I have plainly under-read.

Notes for Mexico

Both entries want booking well in advance, and one of them will not let you in at all without it. Do the admin at home, in a chair, before you have any romantic feelings about the trip.

Monday closes most things here, as it does almost everywhere. I went in November, which gave me clean light and cool mornings and no regrets about either.

Two entries is not a verdict on the country; it is a verdict on how little of it I have seen. Oaxaca, Puebla and Guadalajara are all owed a visit, and none of them are in this directory because I have not been.
