Bdays

Tuesday July 21, 2009 2:18 PM

Right now I’m in the lovely abode of Allison as tonight is her birthday party combined with Joe and another girl that lives at her house.


I’m on the fastest internet I’ve been on since I’ve been in this country and it’s amazing!

Last night we finally did El Gato Negro after Clay had been talking about it for days. Joe wants to go again tomorrow for his birthday. It is very hole in the wall and economical.

This morning Mark took us all to the market. It was very hot. But we saw a lot of authentic mexico. Chops of dead fish and sharks, Heads of pigs and cows, entire stomach systems of cows, all just hanging on hook. Butchers chopping up huge slabs of meet and blood on the floor. Very legit. Also there were a million types of fruits and vegetables.

Class was lame. All of the other classes got cancelled.

But right now I’m happy because I’m just chilling at Allison’s house, swimming soon, bday party later. Tomorrow after class will be birthday happenings for Joe (Ho), and then Thursday to Sunday will be our last excursion to Palenque. It should be a good time. They say it is more rainforesty there with waterfalls and rivers and stuff. It’s a nine hour drive each way and we are sharing a big bus with Anthro so it will be a crowd.

After getting back, just three days of classes and then just tying up the loose ends. ☹
