Day 9


Group 1 left for the bottom of the Canyon in Batopilas at 9:00 AM.  It was a very cool morning, but temperatures warmed up with the sun.  The rest of us got on our bus at 9:30 AM.  We toured the Creel area.  
 
We visited a Tarahumara Indian cave dwelling, the San Ignacio Mission, and the Valley of Mushrooms.  In the afternoon, we went to the Museum.  
 


 
 Following that we went to an artisans store where the local Indians sell their craft in trade for their necessities.  In turn, the profits from the store all go to the hospital.  The Hospital is free for the Indians.  A number of us walked around the town for the rest of the afternoon.  Many shopped.  Later, we had a wonderful dinner at the hotel.  The hotel let us use a  wonderful room with a fireplace to gather before and after dinner.
