Sunday fun-day

Last night we headed to hear a Soul band play—it was really cool to see how this group of Mexicans has appropriated soul (music, style, dance) and made it their own.

Today, after some leisurely internet time, and a lunch of delicious lamb tacos, we headed back to the Bosque of Chapultepec, to the Museum of Anthropology and later the Museum of Modern Art. Both were free because it was a Sunday—we love free stuff! They weren’t kidding about the anthropology museum—it is HUGE. And beautiful. And fact-filled. My friend Victoria’s and my favorite part was outside of the section on the Maya, it was as if we were walking through a jungle and happened upon some ruins. We only really saw a few sections before the museum closed, so we went outside back to where some of the vendors were, got some mango with chile powder on it and some banana chips, and headed over to the other museum.

I think tonight (finally!) will be a chill night—we all need to catch up on our rest, especially here at the high altitude, after the crazy week we’ve had. I think we might watch Center Stage or something of the like.

Our project for tomorrow is cell phones- we’ll see how that goes. We’ll all be in different places, and the area codes are all different, so we’ll see if they can give us the codes we need even if we buy the phones here in the capital.

Hasta luego—Besitos!
