Mexico 2006:Dia de los Muertos & The Heartland

By: W. Scott Koenig
November 15, 2006

Although our plans were originally to visit Oaxaca for Mexico's Dia de los Muertos observance, political unrest there (and a State Department warning) made us change our destination at the last minute. The change was more than fortunate. We enjoyed the week-long celebration in Morelia and Patzcuaro Michoacan with a second week bussing to Cuernavaca and Taxco in the states of Morelos and Guerrera, respectively.

Please enjoy our travel photos and brief descriptions posted by destination, below or clicking on the links at the top of each page. We fell in love with Michoacan (Patzcuaro in particular) and I highly recommend travel to this historic region of Mexico to anyone wanting to broaden their knowledge of the country beyond Tijuana and the border cities. For more information on Michoacan, we found www.michoacan-travel.com to be a very helpful web site in booking our trip.
