Patzcuaro
Bob and Deanna were great tour
guides to the lovely colonial town of Patzcuaro We spent Friday,
Saturday and Sunday going to all the Dia de los Muertos
celebrations and events. The main plaza in Patzcuaro becomes a giant
market place with all sorts of venders
The sugar molds came in all sorts of
shape sizes and colors cats tequila beer and fish and the skulls

Lake
Patzcuaro is very shallow and not very clean the water hyacinths have
taken over. There is a small island in the middle of the lake, but
the rumors are so bad of just being a total tourist trap we opted not
go and I am glad we did not. The boats to go out there are running
constantly and thru the hyacinths
