Second Trip to Taxco with Ashley's Parents

We got to go to the town of Taxco for a second time when Ashley's parents came to visit. I was so glad that we got to go back for a second time becuase the town is so beautiful. The last time that we went to Taxco and visited the church, we were unable to see very much of the church because there was a wedding taking place. This time we were able to explore the church and see all of the intricate details and artwork. The pictures don't even begin to capture the beauty. We were also able to see artists who were restoring paintings for the church. These paintings dated back to the 18th Century and were originally painted by Miguel Cabrera. It was so neat to see the paintings up close and personal.

This is a picture of the amazing church. The picture is a little decieving because in reality it is much larger than it seems.

This is the inside of the church. The whole place is covered in angels, statues and figures all encrusted in gold. It takes your breath away when you first walk in and it would take days to be able to appreciate all of the intricate details and artwork.

Ashley's parents, Steve and Cathy, me, Ashley and Jodi all taking the bus to Taxco. It was fun showing her parents around....and even more fun translating for the two of them becuase they didn't know ANY Spanish.
