After a week of catching up on work and checking out two boutique hotels (Clarum 101 and Villa Ganz, both part of the Mexico Boutique Hotels group) we finally left Guadalajara and stopped off in the suburb of Tlaquepaque to have lunch at Mariscos el Social.  If you ever happen to find yourself in Guadalajara don’t miss this seafood restaurant.  Ginormous portions of amazing ceviche for only 55 pesos (less than $4), and many other wonderful seafood dishes.

Looks like we're headed in the right direction. Yes, there is really a town called Tequila.

After that we headed off to the nearby town of Tequila, passing fields of blue agave which is the essential ingredient of the famous nectar named after the town.  Tasting tour tomorrow!

Blue agave, the essential ingredient in tequila, covers the fields around the town of Tequila.
