Guadalajara Mexico

Last week Kristin and I made a VERY quick trip to Guadalajara. One very quick trip. Kristin had to take care of some passport business, we were able to visit our fabulous flower provider, walked the flower market and took in some sights. 10 hours of Bus Travel..10 hours of Guadalajara and back to PV in less than 24 hours. It was a VERY quick trip!

Kristin and I started off in the bus station trying to keep our eyes open, did a quick change of clothing and off it was to the American consulate. We stopped for a quick breakfast. We should have just stopped with these delicious muffins (they were YUMMY and buttery) and our coffee and hot chocolate, because we ordered plates, but didn't even eat them.

A view of one of the skyscrapers from the corner cafe.

We were chauffered around town my our flower provider. We checked out his store, ran across the street to the flower market and I saw some really intresting flowers.

Our Tour Guides:

This flower is actually called "alium" and is actually the flower from garlic. It would be soo cool to use these, but I don't think they would appreciate the garlicky aroma they give off.

These sunflowers were absolutely breathtaking!

I can't remember the names of these, but soo cool!!

Aren't these sooo cute....

While we were being chauferred around I caught some very quick pictures of the city. Guadalajara was such a HUGE city. We asked about the size of the city and they compared it to the size of LA. Not my town..I definitely realized that I'm a small town girl. Could never handle that size of a city.
