Rain Rain Go Away Please Come Back Another Day

D.F. was awesome. The day we met up with Coleman and Alex we walked around quite a bit and saw the center of the city. The next day we took a 3 hour tour bus and that showed all different parts and places to see and go. Definately worth it-except getting hit by the branches, but it was nice to go outside of where we were staying. That night we went out to dinner with Coleman for one last night, we stayed up late playing cards, having him play his guitar and doing what Alex calls 'warm fuzzies'. After he left us girl went to sleep again thinking we would wake up at 11 or so, but we ended up waking up at 4. By the time we got showered and stuff it was time for breakfast haha. We went to a ghetto movie theatre and watched Sex and the City 2 and went back home to go to sleep. The whole city is built on a lake and in the old churches you can see where the group has, and continues, to sink. Tuesday we went to Puebla, its a large city a couple hours out from DF and very historical. It reminded me of a more modern and larger version of Guanajuato. I liked it. And some of the churches were pretty cool. There are tons of angels everywhere in that city and cerramics are super prominant. That night we met and played cards with to guys from England who had just gotten to Mexico that week and were traveling all summer. Wens Alex and I said goodbye to Casey until Monday and went on a tour to the pyramids called Teotihuacan. We went to a church first that had the modern version right next to it. We learned that the design had been a mockery in response to the government that had killed hundreds of students in the square during the 70s or 80s, the designer was forced to do it also. Then we went to a place on the way to the pyramids to eat lunch and get sucked into buying things-most the people that went with us were new to Mexico and were buying a lot of it. I found a worm in my salad and lost my appetite. At least it was fresh. Then we went to the ruins. The Pyramids were HUGE. there was one for the moon and one for the sun gods. Each were placed so that when looking at one from the other you cant see the mountains behind it-all perfectly placed. Our guide also told us the legends and other facts. These were Aztec ruins. He even took us to one of the smaller stuctures and talked about the worshiping of a certain bird. When you clap facing it the echo sounds like a bird-no Joke. It was pretty crazy. We then headed back to Guanajuato where I am staying with Caseys roommates. Its been pretty slow and not exciting. I did watch the opening game with Mexico and South Africa in the world cup Friday and the USA England game yesterday. Today we went to Embajadores and bought lots of souveniors! Almost done! but not quite. I was supposed to go play volleyball but its started raining and hailing. Its rainy season now and has rained everyday that I have been back. I cant do much outside. You dont want to be in it because then youre soaked and cold-theres no heat in the house, although its not NEARly as cold as before when it was raining-it gets humid now. I cant do laundry or lay out...I hope that it goes away soon! and casey comes back tomorrow! Im excited because its so weird without everyone here. We will see how it goes...
