Mas Cerveza, Por Favor!

A thoughtful chronicle of my study-abroad experience at the UDLA in Mexico...and by that I mean a collection of wild stories about crazy things I will do in Mexico and some other random, non-important things.

Weekend Viaje #4 - Morelia

So we had Mon-Tues-Wed off from school this week in honor of the dead (Dia de los Muertos was Nov 2) so Liz and I took a trip to Mexico City on Friday night to see a concert, and Saturday thru Wednesday was spent in Morelia. Um, since we were gone for so much, I can't even start to recap cuz it would just take forever, so here's a few brief highlights:
  • Reik is absolutely incredible in concert, and they covered Maroon 5's "This Love" better than the band does it.
  • I got food poisoning in Mexico City Saturday morning and was puking before and during the almost 6 hour bus ride from MC to Morelia.
  • Daylight savings time happened and we didn't realize it til about 3pm.
  • I found out I can read a map but fail to process what the legend of the map says and therefore get very frustrated trying to read tourist maps.
  • Old men who sell really yummy ice cream like to hit on me in Spanglish. Old men who beg for change like to hit on me in English.
  • I want to adopt every impoverished Mexican baby in the country and give it a proper life.
  • We bought a box of Frosted Flakes (called Zucaritas in this country) for breakfast one day, and the box was competely infested with cockroaches. SICK.
  • We randomly ran into this kid Adam who is part of our group project for our Marketing class when he was walking down the street with his friends. Random...
  • I found out I can tie a knot in a cherry stem with my tongue, but only after consuming a lot of wine.

Ok thats about it that I can remember. I'll be putting up Morelia pictures on my Mexico photos website, so look at them.
