Guadalajara, Central Mexico and Gulf Coast, Mexico pamericasThis weekend I finally got round to seeing some live football in Mexico. I'd been meaning to go for ages but in the end this was a game worth waiting for. It was "El Clasico" - the local derby between Guadalajara's two biggest teams, Atlas and Chivas. I went with Isobel and Oswaldo, one of our Mexican friends who had taken us to Lake Chapala a few weeks ago. <br><br>Estadio Jalisco is a really impressive 70,000 capacity ...
Guadalajara, Central Mexico and Gulf Coast, Mexico duncantucker... car washes, candies, and balloons hawk their wares to drivers stopped in traffic, performers ( glass-walkers, fire-breathers, clowns, ¨ singers and guitar-players, and even the odd melon juggler or two) set up shop at intersections while traffic is paused for red lights, and food stalls offering everything from freshly-fried churros to tacos al vapor, freshly pressed juices ...
Guadalajara, Central Mexico and Gulf Coast, Mexico dylbeano... light in time to identify my assailant as a fair sized cockroach! However, by the time I grabbed a shoe to batter it with, the ****er had disappeared beneath my wardrobe.<br><br>I have since become somewhat paranoid. Where will it crawl next time I sleep? Not my face? Or will I awake to find a scorpion in my bed or a tarantula spinning its web around me? Tonight I'll be applying plenty of insect repellent before bed and sleeping with a loaded gun beneath the pillow...
Guadalajara, Central Mexico and Gulf Coast, Mexico duncantucker... Having only been here a couple of weeks I was worried that few people would come, but this fear soon proved unfounded. By around 11pm the place was full of international students, Mexicans that we had met, and various members of Alba's friends and family. We had stocked up on plenty of rum, beer and tequila, which proved just about adequate for the proceedings.<br><br>As my 21st it was always going to be an unforgettable night ...
Lake Chapala, Central Mexico and Gulf Coast, Mexico duncantucker... knew anything about the country before I arrived but I was still surprised at how developed and functioning it was. Far more than Vietnam (the only other developing country I can compare it with). <br> In the evening I went with the other student living with the host family to the Lacho Libre. Lacho Libre, sound familiar? Well there is a Jack Black movie called Nacho Libre, and it is about Lacho Libre wrestling, a fantastic Mexican sport. Similar to WWF, Lacho Libre ...
Guatalajara, Jalisco, Mexico jaspergreene... even...), but the stakes are higher this time and I don't know if I'm ready. The proposal?: Be me no matter where I am. Yikes. But even if I'm really sad and scared to be leaving Mexico, I'm also ready. I hate to admit it, but my time in Guadalajara has, and will continue to be, nothing but a buffer. After Mexico City, I was done traveling. Besides being physically sick after leaving DF, I was depressed and homesick. But I am here in ...
Guadalajara, Central Mexico and Gulf Coast, Mexico dmwalsh... locals do, and all), and sat down. They didn't speak any English, so we were determined to try Spanish. I looked at the menu and suddenly realized how tough this was going to be. There was a list of meats, and I went down the list with Kevin.."What's Cabesa?" Head (do not want) Sesos? Brains (definitely not). Tripitas I knew was tripe and I didn't want that. "Kevin, what's Ojo or Lengua?" "Eye and Tongue." I saw chorizo like a godsend, and ordered that. At least I knew what to ...
Guadalajara, Mexico jaguaru... out on ice, and pour the shots for you like a bottle of fine wine). I was initially hestitant to get on the dance floor as the locals can really move, but eventually the funky voodoo rhythm of the live band, and eight tequillas, made me decide I was not only up for it, but the best dancer in the whole damn place. I won´t say I was great, but it could have been worse. Although embarassingly, at one point we were all doing that tourist thing of standing in a big ...
Guadalajara, Mexico kylief... since she was a little girl. There are a couple things she must do when she goes back and this is one of them. The other is to visit La Virgen de San Juan de Los Lagos (which we also did). Since our flight was at 7 AM out of Guadalajara the next day, we TRIED to get to bed early, but before we realized it it was close to midnight. We said our goodbye's to her family and proceeded to pack all our stuff as compact as possible, to little avail; we both had a bulky piece ...
