Daniel took me out this afternoon to see something of Guadalajara - I'm here mainly for work, but a planned extra day allowed me to spend a few hours helping with a couple of outstanding issues in interfacing Lua to Visual C++, then just four hours being shown the city (and taking lunch in the middle of that tour).
It's a historic city of some 5 million people, so I should not be surprised that there is a great deal to see (and a travelogue to write up. However, it's the last half past six in July here (so already August in the UK) and I'm off to get ready for an evening with my hosts, so you'll have to make do with the picture above for the moment - it's actually one of 50 I've cropped and tidied in the last hour, so there are plenty more to come.
