Pueblitos en Puebla y más de Tlaxcala

On Saturday I went to two small towns south of Puebla, Tepeaca and Tecali de Herrera. The first town, Tepeace, evidently is known for Santo Niño Jesús Doctor de los Enfermos (child doctor) and its image is all other town on bracelets, cards, framed pictures, tee shirts….. We even got to see the real doll in the town’s church. And here is the baby doctor…..
The next town, Tecali de Herrera, had an interesting ex-convent that is now missing its roof, making it kinda like catholic ruins. So you can walk into the “cathedral”, but there’s green grass at your feet and the sky (and rain) above your head.





Sunday I made a return trip to Tlaxcala (state just north of Puebla) and here’s a couple pictures of the bull fighting stadium and some other things around town.
