Hotel San Diego Guanajuato

... my tour started. Firstly I had to master the Metro. This turned out to be quite easy, and also quite amusing. People kept getting on the train with speakers strapped to them playing dreadful music, of which they were selling the CD. I didn´t see anyone sell any. Surely they would have been better off without the speaker, then no-one would know how **** the music was, and they might stand a chance of shifting something? The thing worth remembering on the Metro is that everyone here is ...

... orrore.<br>Per il resto del giorno ci limitiamo a camminare lungo i viali del centro, al momento di salire in camera ci accorgiamo della fatica di essere a 2200 mt, l'ostello è subdolo tu credi di dover salire al terzo piano, ma loro hanno due piani non conteggiati (dove c'è la cucina e l'altro con la sala tv) così in realtà devi arrivare al quinto. Dobbiamo organizzarci bene, perchè una volta scesi, se ti accorgi di aver dimenticato qualcosa, sono tutti cavoli tuoi risalire!!

... paper (only in Spanish, they did not have English) for immigration. Then waited in this line for a guy to make sure you filled it all out correctly. This other guy who was a worker too had to record us. He pointed the camera at me and then left. It was a little awkward. Then I went to get my luggage. There were 3 guys there to help me with carts. So, I picked one and we headed to customs. At customs in Mexico ...

... of my concerns around ATM's and the necessity to wear a hidden money belt while traveling. It just goes to show that her assessment of the situation was different from mine and that my level of concern was higher than hers. There are many factors that make tourists or expats choose a destination. Mexico has many positives but at the same time it does have a significant negative that was the cause for the travel warnings and alerts to be issued ...

... front of the crosswalk. As you can imagine this position would have us sitting right in the middle of the intersection. Dom is trying hard not to blow up at this guy so I say "Oh, Senor, No". He walks away for a few minutes to deal with someone else then returns to us saying "go". Somewhere in that area we picked up a bolt in our front drivers side tire because later on the highway we heard something fling across the pavement followed by an ...

... a fire, if the firefighters would fight the fire, or each other. It was interesting. My weekend was great fun- although I stil have some sleep to catch up on. Sunday is when Stavo and I rescheduled our trip to Leon. It was a blast. At about 4 his Dad came and picked us up (as he lives in Leon ) We then had dinner at his house with his Dad, step-mom, and 3 younger brothers. Much to my contrary, his family (all of them) insisted on not only driving us ...

... I've been ignoring his random messages. Oh... and he's 30 (I swear.. I'm ok... and safe... and I am not trying to worry anyone.. I am just writing about the most interesting occurrences during my past week.. OK mom?) Thursday night was a HUGE unofficial "beginning of the school-year" party at Galeria (yea.. the club co-owned by my creeper). It was a riot. This place is insane to try and explain... something you have to see in person. That night at ...

... it would be a great idea to bring 2 bottles of Tequila and a few beers and then the party really got started!! Around 3 am when all the alcohol was gone, George said that his freinds and him were going to Acopolco for the weekend and wanted to know if I wanted to join them!! Being quite drunk at the time, I thought this was a great idea... but realising that I only had limited money, no toothbrush and no change of clothes it might not be a ...

... einzigartige mexikanische Bussystem geniessen konnte. In Guatemala hatte ich bei rasanten Fahrtem durchs Hochland um mein Leben gebangt, habe mich wiedergefunden zwischen zwei Bussen im Nirgendwo, um rauszufinden wo der eine hinfaehrt und der andere herkommt, ob unsere Route ueberhaupt machbar ist, wie lange die Strassenblockade dauern koennte, wie viel das in etwa kosten wuerde, schrie, dass er unser Gepaeck nicht abladen soll... so fluessig Spanisch habe ich noch ...

... cinema. On our way back through the streets full of old Mexican villas we were stopped by a couple of men asking for money which obviously we didn't have any of as we were getting pretty broke by this stage of the trip. I did feel that the situation could have gotten a little nasty down that quiet street if a few more people hadn't turned the corner, still, it didn't stop the men following us for half an hour down the road. The drawback of staying in dorms is that you have about a 100 ...
