Pictures



These are other random pictures from various outings. I went to a “Grease” play at “Teatro Principal,” put on my the university. “Vasolina,” as it is in Spanish, was cute, but not very professionally performed, and I was disappointed that even thought the songs were in Spanish, all the actors lip-sang!

This is a representation of the “closeness” of the traffic here. Usually when people parallel park, it looks like they could never get out, but my host family says it’s possible. I have to be careful walking to school, because automobiles have a much smaller sense of space here, as you can see.

This is a picture of a “friend” a made in the centro (where everyone gathers to hang out, most often). Actually, the owner said he found the iguana and illegally owns her. He also said she’s only about a year old and will get much bigger. Whew! The group of people are some friends I’ve made at school, the Centro de Idiomas. The guy in front is actually a student from the states, but I can’t remember his name. He wants to live here in Mexico though. The couple in the back left are two vacationers from Canada. They were full of questions, especially since they didn’t know much Spanish at all. I hang out with the other students (Aidee, Rebecca, Mayra, Pati, Mario, and I don’t know the other guy) almost every week; they’re great fun and great to practice conversational Spanish. I fink I actually understand more Spanish in an academic setting because I’m less used to “street” or “youth” Spanish.


There’s also a picture of a band playing in the gazebo in the middle of the centro, at the “Jardín Unión.” Something fun is always happening there.
