Day Two: June 9th, 2012


Day Two:

Well, I survived the first night. Ha Ha Today I had a great time. Breakfast, more new food! J Then we went and visited the Father of my friend, Don Carlos. Don Carlos is an interesting person. During the week he is a radio announcer/DJ for a local radio station. On the weekends he is a holistic / alternative medicine Dr. He is also an artistic painter. I will be spending the next few nights with Don Carlos and his wife. How long, I don’t know.
We hung out here for a while, what is now the locations of Don Carlos’ practice one used to be the home of my friends. This was interesting. I also met more family of my friends. There was a steady stream of clients for Don Carlos, so have any type of extended conversation was difficult. So from here it was off to lunch.

Lunch was great, as has been the case I don’t remember the name of the dish I had, but it was oh-so-good. From lunch we went to shop for the perfect bicycles for a 3 year old. Everything in Mexico is not cheaper than the US as you might think. We went to buy Sandra’s 3 year old a bike. It cost about $150.00 where I would have expected to pay about $60 - $80 in the US.  With the new bike and helmet secured in the truck it was off to shop for dinner. Sandra’s mom was cooking.

We had a combination of Carne Asada and Chorrizo. It was very good. We hung out there for quite awhile and  visited with Sandra's mom and brother. Played with the kids and the new bike. Overall had an good visit. After this is was off to pack my bags to go to stay with Don Carlos and his wife Mary.
