STRAWBERRY FIELDS FOREVER

And artichoke fields and Brussels sprout fields as far as you can see. Now I know where those big beautiful tasteless strawberries that I buy in November in Chicago come from.
Santa Cruz-Monterrey 46 miles
THE easiest and most leisurely day of the trip- still blessed with fantastic weather. Went through miles of farm land and then on to a long winding bike path to and through Monterrey
