Saturday, 01/16
Still in San Miguel. I had a conference call for our HOA meeting this morning, went to a coffee shop. Could hardly hear anything - they are tearing up the street, putting electricity under ground to get rid of the millions of wires they had hanging above the streets.
Yesterday: Thunderstorms all day long. Had to hopp from coffee shop to coffee shop on my way home to avoid getting soaked. At the end I stoped at a small "Taqueria". Awesome. Last week in South Texas, Jael took me to a Taco place an hour away 'cause they are so good - these were even better! (Sorry Jael, you need to come down here if you want to try the truly "best"!)
Today the sun is back - and it feels like Mexico again. ;-)
In the afternoon I happened to come across a wedding. The newly-wed couple walked out of the church just as I came by. I don't believe they had any groomsmen or bridesmaides. It varies over here. I've been to Mexican weddings where they had them and once where they didn't (majority). I also found out that it's only 500 pesos to get married in that church (~$40). Bastante barrato.

Hm. Jael never took ME to a taco place. ;-)
ReplyDeleteOk Joe, remember, this is not a holiday trip to Mexico - this is serious business, so get moving. To Central America. Ok just kidding, enjoy Mexico ;-)
ReplyDeleteI think we all like your blog. If you keep doing this, I think you could even make it a book (especially with all the fotos). That means, try to shoot high quality fotos (high resolution), you never know. I think I would (maybe) buy your book. Keep blogging. I am expecting a post every two days or so. Try to post more now, because once you are in the hands of the Zapatistas in the south, or some other movement we never have heard of, blogging will become more difficult. If you get caught by freedom fighters or drug dealers, consider marrying the ugly daughter of the boss, that might save your ba... life.
Cheers
Reto :-)
I would have to try those tacos to believe it, I dont know Joe, those are some damn good tacos to top....sorry Wolfgang I just discovered that taco place recently..

I definitely agree that you should try to shoot high quality photos. =P
ReplyDeleteOkay, Jael, the next time I'm in the Valley, I'll have you show me that place. :-)
