Balance

 

This little dog was spotted balanced on the edge of the second floor wall of a house in San Miguel De Allende. It looked like an older dog and it seemed quite comfortable up there so I think it must be a favourite perch.

Hello There

 

These very tall puppet-like figures called Mojigangas (I think) wander around the town square of San Miguel De Allende on the weekends. Apparently it is an old Spanish custom. There are several different figures and they are so tall that the people inside are actually looking out from around the navels. Great fun to see.

Beautiful

 

Imagine coming home to this gorgeous door and its surrounding vegetation. This was spotted in the Colonia Guadalupe area of San Miguel De Allende. I loved it.

World Cup

 

While I was in San Miguel De Allende there were fellows putting these banners up all over town promoting the 2026 World Cup of soccer since some of the games are being played in Mexico. Soccer is really popular there so it will be a big event for the country. There will be some games played in Canada too, 6 in Toronto.

A Fine Patio

 

It was early morning in San Migel De Allende and this restaurant was not yet open but the door was open so I peeked in and found this beautiful patio with a green wall and colourful lanterns hanging down.

Tank Mural

 

This mural was painted on a tank at an art centre in San Miguel De Allende. The centre was located in an old textile mill that was turned into spaces for studios and galleries. I visited a couple of times on my holiday. The artist was mjmuralart.

Altar

 

I didn't take a lot of interior shots of churches when I was in San Miguel De Allende since I was there during Lent so there were a lot of masses being said and people praying on their own at other times. This is the altar in the church behind the carved door that I showed you on Friday. There were so many wonderful details.
