I have had SMA on my list for a
long time and on a whim decided to book it!
I invited Colin thinking he would say no. He did not and honestly, I was kind of glad
because traveling to interior Mexico is new to me. We would be far from our usual Mexico beach vacation. I just wasn’t sure what to expect. We flew from our little regional airport to DFW
which was seamless for once. I had
booked a car transfer from Querétaro Intercontinental Airport
(QRO) to San Miguel de Allende. It was
about 90 minutes which was long but easy since it was just the two of us. I am using Hyatt points to stay for almost
free. Our first hotel, L’Otel Casa
Arca (Casa Arca), was in the heart of SMA which was great!
We dropped our bags and headed out to
explore. You know what always throws me
off when I travel? I look at a map and
everything looks so far apart and when you get there it really isn’t. I had read many places prefer cash so we
stopped at a local bank to get some Mexican Pesos (MXP). We had the biggest laugh as the cash machine was only in
Spanish . . . we did not see a button to change it to English so we sort of
just went with it . . . cash did come out so I guess our ridiculously limited
Spanish was good enough. We wandered
around the streets and pedestrian zone and I was in love with this city. It is just beautiful
We headed back to the hotel to
grab a quick bite to eat before heading back out. Our final mission for the night was to find
churros at Chocolates y Churros San Agustín. Oh my they were so good . . . cash only!
It was time to relax at the hotel!
