The only thing about these "improvements" is that all of the reasons one comes to Mexico can slowly disappear as it becomes more and more like the US and Canada.
Very true statement. This year my work travels have taken me to lots of cities and you can see the economic boom taking place. Car manufacturing in the north, aerospace and aviation in the south. Things are started to look muy gringo en muchos partes.
But that´s what advancement is all about. I doubt seriously that lovely picture that was taken by an rver in San Miguel de Allende with the lady walking down the street with the baby strapped to her back is what the lady in the picture would prefer over having an education, job and a vehicle with a baby car seat for her child.
Colonial Mexico is slowly going by the wayside. Now it´s all flat screens, cell phones, fast food chains. Sure, it will take awhile but you can´t stop it and why would we? Who wants to walk 10 kilometers with a stubborn old mule carrying leña to heat wood for a hot bath?
Looks so cool through a camera lense. I milked cows as a kid and the best thing that could have ever happened was that automatic milking machine.
