Mary and her husband Daniel are inveterate travelers who take on challenging trips such as walking across Spain and France with 20-pound backpacks! For this presentation, Mary will present a side of Mexico that is not as trodden as the usual tourist spots.

Here is what she says: "After many years in the Caribbean, we tried wintering in Mexico and loved it. We found a diverse country of vibrant, warm people with a rich, ancient cultural history. Personal security, the much discussed Mexican issue, did not impact us in Central Mexico or in the Baja." Free and open to all.
