It has been an interesting past two days. Yesterday, we went on an excursion to Metepec and Atlixco. The scenery is absolutely breathtaking. You get great views of the volcano Popocatepetl and of the land in general. In Metepec we visited a trout farm, where got to see fry trout to adult sized trouts. We also got to feed them. Afterwards, we visited Atlixco also called Atlixco de las Flores (of the flowers). It is well known for it's beautiful flower nurseries and town. Today, after lunch I just walked around Puebla.

The Trout Farm

You can fish here or there's three restaurants where you can enjoy trout or many other delicious foods!

Filled with thousands and thousands of fish!

Still can't get over how many there are!

Pork chops with pico de gallo

Can't remember the name of this popular ice cream shop that everyone kept recommending, but this has to be in the top 3 of the best ice cream I've ever had. So yummy! 

Beautiful Puebla

I came upon a block with huge houses, some were very well gated, so they were hard to see, but I am sure beautiful inside.
