Tomorrow I go to Acapulco to see my friends!!! Yay!!!! I'm excited. It's been kind of a rough week and I think this will be just what I need.
I'm going to skip the apology for it being so long and just go right to what I've been up to. Saturday the kids had swimming in the morning. Afterwards I walked over to the Starbucks and enjoyed some time to myself. I was only going to do a little shopping afterwards but ended up doing a lot more.
I followed signs from Starbucks to try and get to the pyramid that's in town. I got really lost and ended up at the Super. I bought a few things for the kids and then walked across the street to the outdoor mall. I looked around for a while but clothes are very expensive here and I don't really need anymore anyway.
After the shopping trip I tried again for the pyramid, this time with success. It was actually really cool. It's in a big cleared out field in the middle of the town. It is a double pyramid, the people were in the process of building a bigger pyramid around the original small one when the Spanish came and took over. I thought it was much more impressive than the one I climbed nearly a mile to see. I'm just sorry I didn't have my camera, so I might have to visit again.
After the pyramid I made my way to the center because I know that a cab can find me there (I always call from the same place because I know I'll see the cab). At the Zocolo(or town square) there was a concert going on of like reggae music. There were people drawing pictures on large pieces of paper and a lot of people all around watching. I had a great time listening and then I realized it was getting late and I should head back to the house.
Sunday we didn't do much. Nadine left for a business trip so we went to the mall to eat. And then she was gone until yesterday night. I guess I'm still having a little trouble getting used to what the family wants from me and how they want their children taught, because Juan Carlos and I had a talk. But I don't really want to go into details. It's not that important and I will be trying my best to do what they like. I'm just glad that the children are so great, although I do really like the whole family. All I can say is Yay for tomorrow!!!!
