There is art everywhere. This is an artist community and has been for decades. There are art schools and ex-pat artists from the US who just love the light in the Mexican highlands. They paint. They offer up their art through galleries or street fair events.
The first day we had the most glorious lunch at a place called La Restaurante. Because there are American and Canadian retirees here en masse, the quality and variety of food goes way beyond tacos, tortillas and guacamole (although they do an excellent job of those too). We ate like royalty.
Every night you can find a band in the central garden (la jardin). You can find a concert; perhaps a classical one. You can find the usual bars but you can also find salsa dancing or even a milonga.
Handmade items are for sale everywhere at prices that make you pause. You can’t believe this kind of workmanship comes at such a reasonable price. Clothing, pottery, embroidery, jewelry, shoes/sandals, hats, carvings and glass. You name it.
The temperature ranges from about 55 degrees in the early morning to about 85 degrees in the mid-afternoon. That’s when a siesta is in order because you are going to need your energy long into the evening. Evenings are calm, clear and cool. No humidity. You’re at 6,000 feet in altitude, so you stroll home after dancing and you’re not even sticky; a little breathless maybe, but you get used to that.
And that was all just Day 1.
