Today is day 29 in Mexico, and I am still loving every minute of it!
It's been really rainy lately...aside from my 30 minute walk to school, I haven't been affected too much by the weather. Why? Because I had a music project and an essay in history due this week!
To celebrate the end of our 4th week, Rose, Holly 1, Holly 2, Paula, Kelly and I went to Santo Cafe for lunch. The cafe is located above a famous bridge, one of the original bridges that horses and buggies used to use. See here for yourself: http://www.panoramio.com/photo/3247190. Rose and I walk under this cafe everyday to go downtown or to school. The picture in the link is the view going back to our house. I had bistek al pimiento (I believe that's what it was called). It was strips of steak in a rich gravy with rice and a small baked potato on the side. The dish was crazy delicious, and the potato did not come with butter- it came with mozzarella cheese!
Afterwards, Rose and I walked back to our house to drop off our school books. We left the house, got a lot of shopping done, grabbed some elote for dinner and went back to the house.
I will try to put up some pictures of elote and my gordita from earlier this week. Tomorrow Rose and I are going to part our separate ways for a while- she is going to meet up with her family and goof around...probably in Salamanca, Celaya or Uriangato until Monday. I on the other hand, will be going to Cristo Rey and the Bicentennial Expo tomorrow with some other students. This weekend, I should be going to El Penon- not really sure where it is, but if the weather cheers up I should be able to go zip lining! I'll keep you posted!!
