I think it was Saturday that we went to the center of the city and walked around. The city is beautiful. Downtown has a very European feel about it (Churches, cobblestone or brick streets, etc).
Hugo has been very involved in Queretaro since he was born. Directly across from this building is where his Grandpa's watch making shop was. It is across a plaza/garden. There is a clock on the smaller second tower if you can see it. Hugo's Grandpa was the watch maker that the government contracted to make the clock. Hugo and his cousin's were in charge of rewinding the clock once a week. He said they would take their friends up there right before the bell rang just to mess with them. He also said that one of his cousins has a picture of himself hanging off of the cross at the top of the tall tower.
Listed in order of visibility (of their backs) Ale, Carla, Hugo. This is a garden in the middle of the Gran Hotel. It was awesome.
This too was taken by a fountain in the garden at the hotel. Way to beautiful!

If we make it to Queretaro, we want to see El Centro! Beautiful!
