Holiday Inn Express Monterrey Galerias-Sn Jeronimo

... day. <br><br>The surprising part, at least for me, was that I really enjoyed Monterrey. The city itself is interesting, and we explored several free museums and an interesting park. We also went for a nice long walk along a canal (not clear if this was a natural canal made pretty or a man-made canal). The entire length had been made into a park, where they hold concerts, yoga, have boatrides, whatever. There are also ...

... of back alley in downtown Monterrey. It has a kitchen, bathroom, and bedroom with AC! All for US$10 per night! Sometimes even though we seem to be taken care of - there's just no peace. Monterrey is a BEAUTIFUL city, although very Americanized. After two more meetings were set up for this weekend, we knew we had to cancel and keep moving. It was confirmed by MANY. The people were not happy, but oh well. On to Tampico!

... on God, and worship - or even hear myself think over the lady who is still screaming to my left, the cieling starts leaking on my left arm. Soon after, Rob gets up to preach. He did an amazing job! Afterwards, we went to lunch and shopped for some food. <br> Monday was a planned, well needed rest day and for Tuesday, we thought we'd take the train around town to see more of it's beauty. After all, Monterrey is a ...

... a boat trip around the lake in a boat belonging to Evers' friend Jimmy along with his son also called Jimmy (who also entertained us with their brilliant family band and some great rock and roll!). All in all, Monterrey as great fun, it was great to meet with a familiar face and be shown such a good time with great people. Thank you Ever, Laura and all the Garza family!

... to a friend of hers who lives in Monterrey, Gabriela. As soon I arrived, I called Gabriela, who asked (almost like a mother) how I was, whether I have found an apartment, etc. and told me not to hesitate to contact her in case of emergency. She then took me around town. We had lunch and she helped me find a cell phone (no luck). Her personality was very friendly, almost flamboyant. Then, I moved into my apartment. It's ...

Arriving at the airport!! ahh freaking out still not knowing if my friend was going to be there waiting for me. I was an hour later then nwhat i orginally was going to be so there could have been any chance that no one was at the airport waiting for me. Picking up my bag off the machine, while keeping every eye out for my amigo, looking looking jaja Ahhhhh Yay!! :D i see him im happy now.

Hey! I'm back by popular request, to make an update to my travel blog. well it's been a fantastic couple of weeks. I'm looking forwards to tonight because it's Mexican Independence day and tonight will be a fantastic party. my classes were canceled due to the rain and the holiday I'm sure (i got there, and no lights were on!) yesterday we went to Grutas de Garcia. now... I've been cave spelunking on Vancouver island, but never ...

... only get a shot of the mother because the babies were off before we could get close. she was very curious though. the hotel was gorgeous with an amazing view right from our window we had a fireplace that the hotel staff set for us while we were having dinner at the fabulous restaurant. the next day we went for a drive to the markets downtown... the first market i didn ...

Go morron! Klockan är uungefär halv nio på på morgonen här just nu, jag vaknar fortfarande tidigt av mej själv, men det går nog över snart, hoppas jag. Jag blir snortrött vid 10-11 på kvällen, vilket är lite ovant, kan bli jobbigt när man ska gå ut. De två senaste dagarna har jag egentligen inte gjort säskilt mycket. Jag har mest försökt få tag på killen som skulle ge mej nycklar och visa mej till lägenheten där jag ska bo. Det visade sej ...

... a tip on eating mango by the way. Get your mango, ripe to softish to the touch. Wash. then squash it and knead it until the flesh is pulped (inside) - so you should now be holding a sack of mango juice and pulp, with the skin as the sack. Cut a smallish hole in the skin at the top and suck noisily and messily - delicious! Anyhow - the tacos were great - had those pretty much every lunch time. Evening meals were very often tortillas, eggs (a mix between scambled ...
