Tequila

Last weekend I went on an excursion to the little town of Tequila, because I am right in Tequila country here. Actually, Guadalajara is a good place to see the "real Mexico", because this is also the region where the Mariachi music comes from.

Anyway, we first stopped at a hacienda where they make Tequila and could see all the steps of the process from the agave plants to the finished product. Of course, we got to try some and also could buy bottles of different sizes.

Then we had a look at the town, which is a typical little Mexican town with a nice marketplace and a beautiful church. In the end my friend and I got some fruit flavoured water and ice cream and sat down in the shade to have one of these endless women talks .... it was a great day !
