Day 19 - Guadalajara

Today was our last day in Guadalajara before we headed back to the US. We were all pretty tired so we had a sleep in and then went for a wander around the city. There is so much to see in this beautiful city. We visited Ripley's Believe It or Not and the Wax Museum. The kids had their hands cast in wax. Shane and Georgie ventured back to the market to buy and couple of things and Ali & I hit the jewellery market (4 floors of jewellery in one building). We managed a few purchases but there was so much to buy that it would have been easy to go crazy. Stewart from the hotel in Mismaloya recommended that we try Carne en su jugo which is a dish that comes from Guadalajara, so we found a local restaurant that served the dish - it was delicious. It has been difficult finding food for Ali in Guadalajara as most of the restaurants don't have many vegetarian dishes. After dinner we went for a horse and cart ride around the city. Overnight: Hotel Morales
