We went to Colima for the weekend. Wow, I was so excited to find bookstores, library and museums! We’ve lived in La Manzanilla for 2 months and it was such a treat to have all these “city” benefits.
Each night Thursday-Sunday there is free music or dance in the main plaza so we enjoyed a classical music concert and a performance by the local dance folkloric dance troop.
With a 5 year old you never really know how the day is going to go, but we did manage to visit one museum and as luck would have it- luck is on the side of the best prepared – my husband always says- there was a preschool group visiting the museum and they were getting a hands on demo of the art of clay figure making. Lyle spent 30 mins with the class making clay figures and left with a clay whale and snake. It was the highlight of his weekend. When the demo was done he asked the teacher- A donde van, puedo ir con ustedes? “Where are you going, can I go with you?” Part of me thinks he needs a sibling- but that’s another post!
Highly recommend Colima, it's beautiful!
