Queretaro Trolley Tour, Take 2

Last Spring we took an English Speaking trolley tour of Queretaro. Newcomer's set up another one for this past weekend. James' mom, Sharon, was in town, so I thought it would be the perfect opportunity for her to hear some of the history of Queretaro (and for us to catch the things we missed last time). She was very excited for the tour, but, unfortunately, got very sick the day before. We had already paid, so we still went, but it was a huge bummer that Sharon had to miss it!
