Ka-boom!

The rain finally arrived in force! When I left the hotel this morning it was coming down in buckets. Fortunately there are lots of taxis in the area of the hotel, and the fare to the school is only 20 pesos. There was a break in the rain when we got out of class, and the weather was beautiful - several degrees cooler than normal, bright and sunny.
















Los Portales on Calle 6 - the people who work here are really nice, and the Pechuga de Pollo a la Parrilla is great (40 pesos for a huge serving of chicken with rice, black beans, and salad)

We had lunch at Los Portales then went our separate ways; I walked back to the hotel via 5th Ave. and passed the chapel just as a wedding party was exiting, accompanied by mariachis all dressed in white - it was beautiful! Unfortunately I forgot to put the sd card back in my camera when I left this morning, so I don't have a picture. The ones below are from earlier in the week:

One of my classmates finished her three-week stint at Soléxico today, and will be returning to Georgia tomorrow to prepare to compete in the Junior Miss pageant there; buena suerte, Ashton!
