Back in Town

We got back to Pachuca this afternoon and Jenny and I went food shopping and now we're working on lesson plans. We had a great weekend. I really loved Guanajuato. We found out, ironically, that it is the sister city of Sevilla, Spain! I knew there was a reason I really liked that city. Anyway, lots of memories and lots of pictures and a long bus ride later and we're back home. A couple memorable experiences....the callejonadas, or street singers, dressed up like jokers that serenaded us at night; the rat that we found in the kitchenette area of our hostel; the nice French couple we befriended in our hostel; the broken bus toilet; the creepy mummy museum; getting ripped off by the minimart lady in Mexico City's bus terminal; the amazing view of Guanajuato from El Pipila; bonding like none other after sharing a bathroom for 3 days; touring Diego Rivera's home; and doing karaoke in Spanish Saturday night. Good times. Now we're broke and can't wait for payday on Friday, haha.
Hope all is good in the States....hasta luego!

I am so glad to hear that you had a great day with your kiddos and that you had a fun trip out and about! My kids start Wednesday and I am very nervous - I hope they like me as much as your kids like you. Well, I don't want them to bear hug me in the middle of a lesson, but you know what I mean :)

I love reading your blog and I love you Britty! Have a great week at school!
