Homeless no more

I officially have a home in Ann Arbor! Starting in August, I will be living in a lovely 2BR townhouse 2.5 blocks from the business school. I haven't seen it or met my future roommate (who kindly coordinated all the on-the-ground search), but I figure I can make whatever work. Now, if only my bedroom furniture would work itself out... .

Queretaro

To take advantage of yet another holiday in Mexico (semana santa), I took a few days to explore the city of Queretaro and San Miguel de Allende. It was a nice, relaxing four-day weekend with lots of walking and eating. On friday, I got in just in time to see a viacruces (stations of the cross) procession around town. Below is a picture of the "angels" at the front of the procession. The last picture is the Hostal I stayed in and highly recommend: Casa Hostel de Allende.
Here are some pictures of San Miguel de Allende (picturesque town of mostly ex pats and artists):














and a cute church in San Miguel el Viejo (old town center of San Miguel de Allende):
