They brought with them all sorts of treasure, to include many many bottles of spectacular wine. We ate a lot of really good food (in excessive quantities), played some spades (we are still undefeated), smoked some great cigars, and drank some tasty wine. We hope they will return soon!<\/p>\n<p>We met them at the toll booth as you enter Hermosillo which is about 25-30 minutes from our house. We got there about an hour early, but finally we saw them and I took this photo:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/muchachopolaco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/wpid-20131130_123629.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full\" title=\"20131130_123629.jpg\" alt=\"image\" src=\"http:\/\/muchachopolaco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/wpid-20131130_123629.jpg\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>One of our favorite places to hang out is at the Game for dinner and drinks. The owner is a really nice guy and always takes care of us. I love that this place is only a couple blocks from our house. I never get tired of it!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/muchachopolaco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/wpid-20131201_202913_LLS.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full\" title=\"20131201_202913_LLS.jpg\" alt=\"image\" src=\"http:\/\/muchachopolaco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/wpid-20131201_202913_LLS.jpg\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>We also had some good burros at a place near the house on Sunday. I cannot remember the name of the place, but it too was close to the house and had the best burros that I&#8217;ve had in a long time.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/muchachopolaco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/wpid-20131201_132405.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full\" title=\"20131201_132405.jpg\" alt=\"image\" src=\"http:\/\/muchachopolaco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/wpid-20131201_132405.jpg\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>My absolute favorite place to eat in Hermosillo is Steaks del Herradero. The restaurant itself is nothing fancy, but I love their meat more than other place in the world. It&#8217;s a shame that Matt&#8217;s steak had too much salt because mine was perfect. Since Dana couldn&#8217;t finish her steak, I got much more than I had planned on! I could barely move by the time we got home. But nothing a fat cigar couldn&#8217;t fix.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/muchachopolaco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/wpid-20131130_190025.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full\" title=\"20131130_190025.jpg\" alt=\"image\" src=\"http:\/\/muchachopolaco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/wpid-20131130_190025.jpg\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Before they left, we went downtown to check out the main square and church. I had never actually been inside the church, so that was fun (for about 30 seconds). Here&#8217;s a quick video:<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/dVdxG9f5xaw?rel=0\" height=\"315\" width=\"420\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>We then drove up a hill in the center of the city which provides a nice panoramic view. I hadn&#8217;t been up here in years. It was fun to be able to see everything now that I have a pretty good familiarity with things.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/muchachopolaco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/wpid-20131202_122611.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full\" title=\"20131202_122611.jpg\" alt=\"image\" src=\"http:\/\/muchachopolaco.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/12\/wpid-20131202_122611.jpg\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Next time Matt will really need to bring more cigars.
