A very happy Christmas/Feliz Navidad to all my fellow forumers. What are your plans?
I said I wanted to spend this Christmas out of the city...and we are going the million miles all the way to Hidalgo, with extended family!
Start at Real de Monte (have a pastie (a bit of home food!)), continue to Santa Mar�a Regla, visit the Hacienda - they have a fascinating tour and a lot of history. Stay in a caba�a at the Prismas Bas�lticos and drop in on Huasca de Ocampo (beautiful town). Done it all before, but none of the family has, and it should be a peaceful Christmas. |

Merry Christmas to all!
Spending the holidays at home after spending last year in Canada. We have a two-month old to introduce Christmas to, quietly. This season is a lot more hectic with kids...
Turkey vales (!!) will be hosting a dinner this Friday. |

I didn't know you could get vales for turkeys. Of course, working for myself, I don't receive vales for anything. |

The ASF gives out 200 pesos in vales for turkey...printed right on them that they can only be used for turkey. Not sure if that's common elsewhere. |

That's interesting, and useful. Does it do the same for Thanksgiving? After all, it is the American School Foundation. |

No extra vales but they do give the full week off work. The trade off is only a week at Semana Santa. |
