In the latest Friendly Friday Challenge from Sandy, purple is the subject to be thinking about. To be completely honest, of all the colours, purple is not a colour I think much about. I had always thought of purple as an "artificial" colour which also seldom occurs in nature (not true, there are many purple …
Following on from the recount of my time in Mexico (last stop Guadalajara), the next stop on our Mexican adventures was to a pueblo blanco Patzcuaro. On first impressions, I thought this was the inspiration for the Pixar movie Coco from the white and red building facades. It is indeed, not the town that inspired …

I can't remember when it first appeared. This pull to go to Mexico, but I had put it off due to fear for about a year. Fear from what we see on the sensationalized news about Mexico. But in a small corner of my mind, I could see colours, music, a history I didn't know …
