FOUR YOUNG MEN
ENJOY SIX WEEKS
SOUTHERN TRIP
Visit Mexico City and Pacific Coast at Aca-
pulco
Unsettled -conditions In Europe have
caused American tourists to confine
their tours to the United States, its
possessions, Canada and Mexico this
year. A number of Clare people have
enjoyed Mexico trips this season.
Dick O'Connor, Elton Maybee, Bob
Adams, of Shepherd, and Russeli
Glass of this city, have recently returned from an Interesting six weeks
tour of Mexico and the south.
The boys left Clare January 21st,
stopped at many interesting places in
the States, such as Lincoln's tomb at
Springfield, Illinois; the museum
housing Lindbergh's trophies at St.
Louis, Missouri; Old Kentucky Home,
in Kentucky, where the famous song
was written; and Lincoln's birthplace
in Kentucky.
They visited many state capitols including those of Illinois, Texas,
Louisiana and others. At Randolph
Fields, in Texas, they found the
weather quite cold, taking off their
top -coats for the first time at Mexico
City. The weather in the northern,
part of Mexico owas the coldest it has
been in twenty-four years.
They visited a large dude ranch in
the mountains, and at Victoria, were
taken through a large tunnel in the
mountains to the source of supply for
the water system of the nearby city
of Jacala.
From Mexico City they drove to
Cuautla, noted for its Sulphur Springs
and spent two days bathing.
They arrived at Taxco on Siinday,
which is their market day, and on the
following Monday, which was a holiday throughout Mexico, they attended
a fiesta featuring dancing, singing,
etc. Taxco was one of the most interesting towns they visited and they
remained for three days. The town
is built on. the side of a mountain and
the houses have colorful red tile roofs,
providing excellent local color and
scenery for the many artists who
come here to paint.
They drove from Taxco down to the
coast at Acapulco, where they found
the weather very hot and enjoyed
bathing in the Pacific Oee an.
They drove back to Mexico City the
following Sunday and saw a good bull
fight. That evening they had their
car broken into and lost several
things they had purchased and their
personal belongings. The boys remained a few days in Mexico City and
each day drove to several places of
Interest, such as the Floating Gardens,
the Sun Pyramids, market day at
Tolueo, and visited several interesting
places at the capital city.
On the drive home it rained every
day and they saw u.o snow until reaching Michigan. They arrived in Clare
February 29th, after a most enjoyable
trip and thrills they will rememeber
for years to come.
