Today we went to a place in Cuernavaca called "Jardin Borda." It used to be the fancy schmancy home of a French guy who found a silver mine. It is a beautiful botanical garden.

I loved the ground!! Look how pretty it is!
Not sure what Ellie is doing!!
Tessy Doodle.
This "chair" was in the garden. Perfect for Queen Whitney.
The garden had a little pond where we rented row boats. I got to ride with Whintey, Ellie and Tessy.
There's Brianna, Lulu and Maho up ahead.
Camille, Ellie and Tessy. The garden had several little pools like this. Very pretty.
Sll the cousins: Luke, Camille, Ellie, Parker, Helaman, Laurel, Tessy, Brianna, Whitney and Josh. You can see Abuelitos and Tio Moro off to the right in the distance.
This is a waterfall we went to here in Cuernavaca. We took a picnic (tortas) and had lunch here. You can see the path that goes down and behind the waterfall. Apparently there are even picnic benches there, but because of construction we couldn't go down there.
Brianna on the stairs leading down to the balcony where I took the above photo, and where we ate our lunch.
This is also part of the balcony where we ate lunch. It's all so green and tropical!
Making tamales!!

That place is sooooo beautiful!! You were already an amazing cook in regards to "Mexican" food. I can't even imagine how much better and authentic it will be. I thought it was pretty authentic and amazing as it was!!
