Have been asked by more than one person what I am doing...
have been to various mercados, watched a lot of local life, been out to a pueblo or two, watched a funeral procession in Teotitlan, watched soccer in the park, been to el tule to see the big tree, which is exactly that. 2nd biggest tree in the world. brings the town quite a bit of money, as they have landscaped gardens with green grass, which is rare here this time of year (dry dry dry season). we approached the tree... ¨my, that´s a big tree.¨ Then there´s a gate, and a guy collecting 3 pesos for entry. entonces, of course we pay the 3 pesos and then... hmmm... now i´m two feet closer to the big tree. what exactly was the three pesos for? ah, see, so the town of el tule can have green, manicured grass.
At least part of every day, i roam endlessly around the city, which is quite a pleasant place for doing that, and hanging out in various parks. not parks exactly - no grass. i am tan, and my feet are a bit sore.
Y ustedes?
