PLAN MEXICO POST CONVENTION TRIP
A few hours away from Houston, Texas, the site of the 12th annual convention and exhibition of the Mason Contractors Association of America next February, is a land so exotic and fascinating that a stay there is a sojourn in another world.
That land is beautiful Mexico, where many mason contractors, their wives, friends and others in allied fields will enjoy a leisurely 10-day vacation following the convention, it was announced by George A. Miller, executive vice president of the association.
Many travelers agree with Will Rogers, who once said this about Mexico: "The thing that strikes me is that we go away to Europe and prowl all around hunting for odd and different things. I was all around Spain and Italy... Switzerland... Holland, all of them, and there is more quaintness and difference to see here in Mexico than in the whole of Europe."
So Much to Do and See
Each person finds his own favorite "differences" in Mexico. Perhaps the leisurely pace, cafes on the square, long, delicious dinners served late in the evening. A woman may remember the flower stalls of Mexico City, the open-air markets, the ancient churches, the tiny shops selling handwrought silver, leather, or fine perfume.
Still others will seek the excitement of bullfights, jai alai, and fiestas. Or you may dream of a hammock on a long white beach at Acapulco, with a beach-boy to wait on you, and a view of bathers, sailboats, and indigo. Pacific, while the sun turns your complexion to Acapulco-gold.
This is Mexico, a country of flowers and sunshine, of green mountains and white beaches, of volcanoes, Aztec ruins, old Spanish buildings, and luxury hotels.
