Hi Yirg --
Keith has a good point. But if you want a little time away, and/or to see a
bit of nature, you could hardly do better than to head for El Rosario
Monarch Butterfly Sanctuary. I'd recommend an overnight stay in
Angangueo so that you can be in the park in the morning, when the
butterflies "melt" from the trees. It's one of the sights that will stay
with you forever.
regards,
Mike
