So Mexican

On Sunday morning, I went with the abuelita of the family to help her do her weekly shopping.  The market is filled with novelties, like pig heads and chicken hearts and all the fresh fruit, veggies, and flowers one would expect from a colorful and noisy Mexican market.  Here are me and Dona Zoila at the mercado.  I love her.  

That afternoon was Pachi and Julia's bday party (the two girls, whose birthday's are just days apart).  What a fiesta, complete with face painting, pinatas, break-dancers, tons of food, and a hilarious clown.  In this photo, you can see my family on the left - Sol, Roger, Julia, and Pachi (with a fairy painted face :).

Yesterday I went to yoga at a new place, each yoga palapa more beautiful than the next...

One more post to come on Saturday before I return home, and so much to squeeze out of these last 48 hours...maybe even one final surf session to break in my new rash guard that my host family gave me as a good-bye gift...I'm now official. :)
