Aventuras mexicanas: The Big G and other Oaxacan Adventures
http://oliviaredline.blogspot.com/2011/07/big-g-and-other-oaxacan-adventures.html
Tuesday, July 26, 2011. The Big G and other Oaxacan Adventures. Where to even begin? After the parade, it was off to the Mezcal Fair, one of Oaxaca’s greatest brainchildren. An admission fee of $35MX (three dollars) gains you entrance to the park containing more than 20 mezcal vendors, all eagerly offering samples. Julie and I are now expert mezcal tasters and hagglers and we walked home quite satisfied with our purchases for the day. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Life in Oaxaca: ProWorld Mexico.
