| See how thick the wall is where the mailbox is hanging? That's how thick adobe walls are. They keep it cool in the summer and warm in the winter. |
The old area of downtown Tucson is home to many adobe buildings, most still in use. We wandered around, in and out of unique shops, enjoying the fine weather, taking pictures, admiring the beautiful plants and finally eating lunch at the original El Charro, still in the house where it was started. They have expanded the building just a bit, though.
