Howdy All,

Listening to Carlos Santana's PBS special and looking over old
Images, this one from just outside Mexico City, at the centuries
old Xochimilco.

    I remember that series very well, Craig. It was some truly outstanding production. Good to get another glimpse of it.

    I always wanted to lie naked on a bearskin rug in front of a fireplace. Cracker Barrel didn't take kindly to it.

    Howdy Don,

    Thanks very much, we really loved Mexico City, still remember the Hotel right
    on the Zoleco, had a rooftop Restaurant that had wonderful food and the view
    was spectacular.



    I think I can find a few more mwink.gifwinkmwink.gif

    Howdy Mary,

    Thanks very much, have to say, this is one of those places that I'd go back to
    in a Heartbeat, we only traveled on one Canal, and there's another one left
    to explore.
    Take care,

    Craig, thanks for the additions. thumb.gif

    We staid at the Hotel Geneva, which may not be there anymore , after that last huge quake in the early 90's??

    Lovely old world place. Got to get a good negative scanner! Post some of my ancient stuff!

    Howdy Don,

    You're more than welcome, I'd love to see some of your older images.

    I bought a nice Epson Scanner and have really enjoyed it, it does slides, negs, regular images,
    and copies.
    Take care,
