Events..,

Last week Guanajuato observed Dia de los Mujeres, of Women's Day. I think the girls shouldn't have had to go to school, but we did anyway. The only thing that happened were a crowd of booths set up in the centro-mostly jewelry, bags, and food. I bought some dried fruit, guayaba, I think. I brought some home to Margarita (my host mom), and Ester, who cleans the house 3 days a week. More recently, an international car show came. Everyone called it the “rally,” with a rolled “r,” of course. Holly and I went for a little bit, but the centro was so packed full of thousands and thousands of people we could hardly move, much less see anything other than the gigantic balloons which flew overhead. We ended up not doing much that night…
