Holiday Inn Leon Mexico

... his own seat, where he immediately fell asleep.<br><br>I loved the ride. It was comfortable, short (about an hour an a half) and scenic - and included a complimentary goodie bag of a breakfast bar and a bottle of flavoured water (no plain water available).<br><br>When I arrived at the bus station just outside of town at St Miguel de Allende, the taxi driver that was next in line, and therefore the one for me, had a tantrum when I indicated that I needed to find my ...

... and during- parties! All of this was in one of the most gorgeous cities ve ever been in, replete with cobblestone streets, winding allies, epic stone staircases and even more epic churches, beautiful pastel-colored houses, endless street markets, and, unexpectedly, dozens of roadside pizza stands (in reviewing the weekend, I think I ate 12 slices of pizza over the 3 day trip). <br> <br> It was a star ...

... and also about their peculiar head distorting and cross-eyed creating customs - performed on babies in the name of beauty and indication of nobility,<br>Later, Daniel took me to large pub sort of a place where enormous bull heads festooned the walls, and where we were served a succession of delicious snacks - to the extent that eating any dinner was out of the question. We were joined by Daniel's brother, Alexandro, his wife, Sophia and ...

... going to cry. It took me 10 min. to say it right, and then I couldn't do it again. (I can now do both farely well) <br><br> I found the perfect video to describe this time I have had so far. Check it out. Go to youtube. Type in Steve Martin in Pink Panther. Find the video about "I would like to buy a hamburger". AWESOME. I showed my pronunciation teacher, he died laughing. <br><br> On ...

... everyone, as to not seem like a snotty American. I try to be as friendly as possible. (I do this more with the women of course)<br><br>The City:<br>-Guanajuato is very much a college town. Here in Mexico, kids in College travel to school by bus, and stay there Mon. - Thurs. (so these days we have the kids who go to la Universidad) BUT on Fri.-Sun. we have the kids who live here and go to school elsewhere. Totally different crowd.<br><br>- Also ...

... Wednesday, little more painting and then my last English class...I told them we're going to have a party...I'm thinking popcorn, pop, water balloons, and a little review, of course. Then Wednesday night I'll have the women's small group. Thursday will be fun. Two women from the church, Norma and Dafne, wanted to do something with me before I left so we're going to head to Leon for the day to go to the Imax theatre and shopping or ...

... in her 40's from California. Sounds a bit odd-I know. But she is very fun and the only other American in the house that can actually speak good Spanish at this point. There is another student Ashley-who is also studying here for six months and is my age- she is very quiet. Another lady who is in her mid-50's who is taking classes here for another week. 2 more students should also be coming on Monday. So far-this has been a ...

... to be literally a wall away from a nightclub upstairs in the building next door (its closed Mondays so the first night had been quiet) - I had pumping latin tunes with building-shaking bass until nearly 4 am keeping me wide awake. Didnt fancy another night of sleeping in the nightclub and couldnt be bothered to move my stuff to another hostel in Guanajuato , so I decided to get up bleary eyed at 8am and head for Mexico City.

... was written underneath. I stood with two gallery attendants watching the Western intently trying to decipher the artist's intended message. My mind was jumping from cinematography to characterization to language without a clue what the artist was trying to convey. After standing there for what must have been 20 minutes I was about to give up and chalk one more art piece up to insanity when a couple walked in, looked ...

... went...by 6pm I'd reached the 'I'm going to flipping (not quite the word I was thinking) well smack her when she gets here!'. By 7pm I had become a source of ridicule for all the bus station staff and taxi drivers who (everytime I went outside to check if Riss was there) taunted me with their offers of escape from my prison! I bought a phone card to call Rissa at 7pm, but it didn't work...all I heard was some random woman burbling in Spanish ...
