Meson De Los Poetas Guanajuato

I am now apart of a church body. I have been there about 3 weeks. I love it. I am really great friends with the Pastor's son, and he has helped me abundanatly. He has introduced me to the other church people and shows me around town. He is awesome. He can speak English fluently, so when I need help he is my translator. He is so funny ...

... ones she was going to put in it was too ugly for me. She is so sweet. She is doing everything she can to help me. It is in a safe part of town, and is closer to downtown. Now it will take me about 10 min. to walk to church and school. =) I am SUPER excited. Can't wait to finally cook for myself again. =) I really miss it. Oh, and it is big enough that I can have the whole 20 people over from my SS class. =) So, that is all. DON'T WORRY. I am doing great, and I LOVE MEXICO.!!!!!!! =)

... like me, it is obvious, but after that, his whole demeaner changed. IT was aweosme. Maybe I don't have to have "the talk" with him after all. Please pray for his salvation, and for strong Christian men to come into his life. I CAN'T WAIT TILL I CAN DO MY TESTIMONY PERFECT IN SPANISH. This type of interaction is what keeps me going. I love it, I thrive off of it. It is such a rush to know he is more than likely thinking of it right now as he is walking home. PLEASE PRAY.

... 12 at precisely 4:30 (perfect timing -just to fully confirm the extent of my smoothness!) After not tipping the taxi driver, I rang the bell and was met at the front gate that led into the garden by Jorge (hor-hay), who led me to the house who introduced me to his parents and my hosts, Gay (guy - short for Abigail),her husband, Armando, and Jorge's girlfriend, Sara. Jorge carried my bag up the delicate, winding,metal staircase and Sara showed me to my room.

... gang-related killings and a mandatory sentence for drive-by shootings. Also this weekend hundreds gathered in Surrey (city next to Vancouver), including the mayor and local Members of Parliament, to protest against violence. The newly elected mayor of Vancouver, Gregor Robertson, has called for a regional police force that would operate across the Greater Vancouver area.

... Mexican art - Frieda Kalho. His is a complicated story. http://www.pbs.org/wnet/americanmasters /episodes/diego-rivera/about-the-artist /64/ In 2001 I had heard of Diego Rivera and Frieda Kalho for the first time when I took a Spanish course at UNAM (Universidad Nacional Autonoma de Mexico) Escuela de Extension en Canada, located in Gatineau, Quebec just across the Ottawa River from Ottawa, Ontario where I then lived. The story was fascinating at the time ...

... to a different house location in town- and then the boxes are to be passed on from household to household. Since about everyone of oscar's little cousins and nieces and nephews seem to have some kind of obsession with me, I had the pleasure of carrying one of his 3-yr-old twin cousins ... the entire time.. I thought I was going to loose an arm. I haven't really taken much time to talk about religion here. Obviously since about 96% of the population in Mexico ...

... Its interesting that they celebrate the day that they claimed independence from Spain, rather than the day it was actually won) Since yesterday was the first of the month- decorations have been but out all over town. Its really cool- I will take pictures. Once upon a time in Mexico (With Antonio Banderas, Salma Hayek, Johnny Depp.) was filmed here in Guanajuato. (also in San Miguel Allende) I watched the movie the other night and it was just bizarre. I can ...

... a great location and very reasonable rates. Just steps away from Teatro Cervantes, right in the middle of historic downtown. This small and friendly hotel has 4 private rooms with cable TV. Their current rates were 160 peso – excellent value.

A step up in price is the charming Hosteria del Frayle, Sopena No. 3, Tel ...

Guanajuato has to be one of the prettiest towns you will ever see. Set in a valley in the middle of some mountains, it's full of narrow winding streets that go up and down hills and has a network of tunnels running under it. Apart from being a university town it happened to be the beginning of the annual international Cervantino festival after Cervantes the famous Spanish writer (who wrote Don Quiote) so it was the start of a big party. This meant lots of free concerts in the main square ...
