I had my own little 4th of July here in Mexico. I celebrated Independence Day in Cancun, the most American city in Mexico, by eating dragonfruit (pitahaya) and potato chips on the beach. I also went to several malls to engage in some good, old-fashioned, American shopping. More importantly, and certainly the highlight of my festivities, were my trips to BOTH WalMart AND Starbucks. As soon as I set foot in the WalMart, I suddenly felt so much love for America! However, I think my reaction was more a product of living in tiny Valladolid than actually missing the United States...What I did miss was the family time and, of course, the American barbecue picnic...Oh how I long for a veggie burger and some sweet corn on the cob! But Cancun was a really nice change of scenery and I definitely came home with some color. :)
We have been getting some pretty heavy rains here, but it has been keeping things cool, which is great. I am interested to see how the hurricane season turns out...hopefully it won't live up to the predictions!
Well, it's getting late here so I must go...Buenas noches a todos!
