This blog has no purpose but there are just some things I have found interesting so I am going to share them....
Coffee: anyone who knows me knows that I am very passionate about my coffee, so of course this was one thing that I was very much looking forward to about coming to Mexico. For heaven's sake, the SSP team came back with real coffee beans and coffee fresh from the mountains of mexico and pictures of the whole coffe-making process. I was EPICly disappointed when i came to Queretaro and found that basically everyone drinks instant coffee. This suck! Even at restaurants and coffee shops you can't buy just a regular cup of brewed coffee. Boo! But clearly, I am surviving
I ate fried bananas Tuesday, topped with sour cream and sugar. It was weird. I liked it
It is governor election time here. They have interesting means of campaigning here. There are cars that drive through residential neighborhoods with big ol speakers announcing things about the candidate. One time, as I was walking for the bus there was a group of campaigners in the street at a busy intersection. When the light turned red, they would run out into the street waving flags, yelling, and asking people if they wanted stickers on their cars. The weirdest part was that they were blaring a song with these lyrics "I want to make love like na na na, I want to make love like na na na" over and over. It did not strike me as professional. Maybe they didnt know what the song said haha.
Yesterday I wanted to take bus #5 from el centro to my house. There are 2 route 5's. I took the wrong one. When I realized this, there was really nothing I could do but wait for the bus to complete it's route so I could get off on the street I got on a take a different bus. Low and behold, it took almost 2 hours. Good thing I didn't have to be anywhere...
Oh Mexico :)
