More details on the trip to Mexico. We still have room if you want to come. Give it some thought and prayer.
Here are some estimates:
•Lodging in Mexico City, $10 per night, 5 nights, $50.00
•Breakfast at seminary, $3.00 per day, 4 days, $12.00
•Lunches and dinners on our own, approximately $15.00 per day (with drinks) 10 days, $150.00. (This would be eating really well).
•Bus trip to Teotihuacán and admission, $15.00 per person (estimate).
•Bus trip to Cuernavaca, $10.00 per person.
•Taxi to the Shrine of the Virgin of Guadalupé, $10.00 per person
•(These prices do not include souvenirs and I might be able to reduce the costs of the buses and taxis with Raúl’s assistance)
•Bus to orphanage in Colón Querétaro, $20.00 per person.
•Donation to orphanage $100.00 person.
•Gift to Raúl (our guide for the week) $100.00 per person.
Estimated total cost…..$467.00
I am sure that we could cut some corners on meals and bus tickets while we are there and please remind people that these are estimated costs – while traveling in a developing country it is better to overestimate and be prepared than to wind up with no cash.
Please let me know if you are planning on (or thinking of) joining us.
