I had this saying DOWN by yesterday...
"How much is this?" We went down to where everyone goes to shop, and that is all I was asking. They weren't giving me good prices though, since they knew I was American, or "gringa". They give my mom good prices - it seems like where ever she goes, she looks like a local.
I'm currently sitting on our balcony and the weather is beautiful. It's day 4 of our Puerto Penasco, Sonora trip in Mexico, and it's fantastic.
Update...
On the first day here, we met people from AZ who was also a participant in the AZ all-state orchestra. Such a coincidence. So, we have been talking alot every time we see each other, and even the next night, we whipped out our violins and played in the lobby - we got lots of listeners! It's so fun to play alone and just let people enjoy hearing what you have to play, but even better when you're with someone else!
This boy's name- Emilio (yes, like Emilio Estevez), is 2 years below me and also plans to attend Arizona State...good for him! He is pretty timid, but a very nice person. His mom is such a hoot, too. Very loud, bubbly, effervescent person! The dad is also a very funny person too, and he also got really really BLACK! haha.
Yesterday was Day 3, and we began it with the beach. I encountered a racist bigot, and, wow. There is nothing more that annoys and angers me than bigoted, racist, or close minded ignorant people. My sister and I got our hair braided, and he couldn't stop making racial remarks! So finally, when we were leaving the beach, he wouldn't stop so I just said, "Hey are you married?" (and I think the people with him thought I was trying to set us up) so they were like "Nope, he's not!" And I said, "Well I didn't think so. I can see why."
Good riddance to him!!
Hope you are all doing wonderful.
Xox! off to the beach again...
