I'm going to have to skip the introduction because I have other things I need to do, so here's what's new. After lunch today, we went to "El Centro", a long street with tons and tons of different kinds of shops. When we left the house to walk to the bus stop it was starting to sprinkle a little and by the time we got to El Centro, it was literally raining harder than I have ever seen. Luckily it's warm here so to me it felt really good when I was soaked to the bone. I honestly could not have gotten more wet if I had taken a shower, the rain had better water pressure than the home I'm staying in. I'll wrap this up with my 3 favorite things about Mexico so far:
1. La Comida, the food
2. Los Arboles rojos se llama "flamboyanes", the red trees
3. Hacer trueques, bartering
So, are the flamboyanes those same trees we saw on our trip - that we took a photo of on the side of the road? Also, you may want to invest in an umbrella! See if you can find the kind that do NOT collapse - I had a couple of really cool ones on my mission.
ReplyDeleteAlso, please PLEASE remember to learn how to make panuchos and salputes. I hope you are having lots of banana con leche...
So, that last comment and this one are from Paul, not Amy. I am on Amy's computer and it posted as her instead of me.
ReplyDeleteSounds like your having a really good time! And since I don't know about this culture or it's food, what are panuchos and salputes?
