But...Well we were very careful last time in Mexico. But that's not too fun - the street food looks so good. Now we are only sort of careful. We drink bottled water but don't worry about putting RV Park water in our tank. I think most Mexicans use bottled water also but I'm not totally sure about that. We never ask about ice - we just assume it's bottled. <br /><br />We did have Montezuma's revenge last time but think it was because we ate ceviche that someone had made. We have never felt sick after eating from a vendor or the fruit. We are both doing fine - our digestion is a bit off for the first few weeks in Mexico - just getting used to the germs here. <br /><br />Even when visitors come to Canada there is adjustment - all countries have their germs that foreigners have to get used to. <br /><br />I'd had to see the critters inside us - same thing as our beds - saw those pictures in what junior or high school.

Do the Mexican citizens need to boil and filter the water before they drink it or wash off produce? Does this mean you don't drink tap water or ice from tap water? <br /><br />I've been watching a show called "Monsters Inside Me" on the Animal Planet, it shows some really crazy critters inside of our bodies...scary crazy! <br /><br />Every time I've been to Mexico I get "Montezuma's Revenge", how do you guys avoid worshipping the porcelain throne and wearing adult diapers for what seems like eternity?

I want to move there too! However, we are in Patzcuaro now and I want to move here too! Guanajuato would be a great spot to rent an apartment for a winter for sure. We are feeling fine apart from the usual travel stomach issues. :)Teresa Johannesma Woodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04452415576469118219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7145439356430068072.post-83510742023007582602014-11-14T11:11:13.791-08:002014-11-14T11:11:13.791-08:00Once in a while we remember to take a group photo ...Once in a while we remember to take a group photo - here the camera was sitting on the edge of a step - yikes! I'm happy to be missing from our posts :) When I look back to two years ago when we were in Mexico I can't believe how much Cas has changed. I sure hope that we have inspired her to travel when she is older! I think I will print a few off when we get home - would be nice to stare at the Guanajuato el centro picture!Teresa Johannesma Woodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04452415576469118219noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7145439356430068072.post-67489759521940035302014-11-14T10:51:42.367-08:002014-11-14T10:51:42.367-08:00Glad you finally had a picture with all three of y...Glad you finally had a picture with all three of you on the blog. We bloggers are always missing from our posts. Cassia is really growing up! It will be amazing for her to look back on the blog when she is older and revisit all the places she has been. A real little traveler! The pictures of the city could certainly be printed and framed. Safe travels.

I love the way the people paint their buildings to brighten things up a bit in what appears to be a desert landscape. I hope you guys are well and again thank you so very much for sharing and we look forward to hearing from you soon!
