Papal Visit

Expect San Miguel de Allende and everyplace else in Guanajuato to fill up when the Pope arrives in León on March 23. He will limit his Mexico visit to one state, commemorating — without quite saying so — the outbreak of the Church vs State wars that began in the 1920s with the dedication of the Christ the King monument atop Cubilete Mountain. Peace has since been restored.
