Probably they were displayed and I was just a bit under duress after driving in the snow to…

I’ve been all over Mexico, but more as a solo/budget traveller, so I’m not experienced with places that might be more comfortable for them. I’ve spent time in the Yucatan, Oaxaca, San Cristobal de las Casas and CDMX. I haven’t been to Baja Cali…
