These pictures are of James in Mexico. James went to one of the schools while he was there and learned spanish, he also met a lot of nice people. In the city of Cuernavaca are beautiful churches, monasteries, a 16th-century Franciscan convent, a palace built by Hernán Cortés and decorated with murals by Diego Rivera, and a formal garden that was frequented by Emperor Maximilian and Empress Carlotta. Nearby is the Toltec ruin, Xochicalco, built over limestone caves. The pictures above are of The Chapel of Cuernavaca.
