Day 1

Today we explored the village of Teotilan Del Valle, which is where we are staying. We went to their marketplace that is open every morning. We also walked around the church where they are starting preparations for the festival and dances they are having next week. Everything is so beautiful and the people are very friendly. A lot of the women will invite you back to their house to see their work which is mostly rugs or bags made of wool. The woman below was showing us one of the plants that they make the natural dye from at her house.

  1. That is so interesting. Did you get to see the rugs and bags that she had made? I'm sure they were beautiful. Is that berry in her hand what the color comes from?
