People still lined the streets and it sounded like it was still mid-day based on the sheer noise factor of the streets.

Needless to say she was a bit uncomfortable the next day and they caused her to sit out our second day in the sun. I love being half Mexican :) When we finally made it back we were so smelly and suffocatingly hot that we immediately showered before venturing out for some dinner. One our walk ...
