Best Friends! by Addie Bochner

When we were in Oaxaca( the last part of our trip ) my best friend Claire Lee came to visit. She has blond hair and absolutely loves tie dye. I missed her so much while we were on our trip. She was here for about 4 days which is not a long time to visit. We  tried to show her all of our favorite places like Mayordomo which is a really good chocolate place and we usually get cold chocolate there.  We also toured the botanical gardens that has all the sacred plants of Oaxaca.

We also took her to my art class and me and her made some really cool books. We made a Japanese book and a normal book. I also went on a tour with her and her mom Carma. We went to a mezcal factory , a weaving shop , an all natural swimming pool on top of a petrified water fall.  We visited the Mitla ruins, the widest tree in the world called Tule and a delicious buffet.

It was so fun when Claire was here and when she left it felt so calm and boring. I miss Claire even though I am going to see her in about  a week.

  1. It sounds like you squeezed plenty of stuff into a 4 day visit. I was in Oaxaca in 1989. Very cool and fun place. I enjoyed reading your post!
