June 15, 2014

Today was a relaxing day. We had to write a 1-page paper (in Spanish) about our reactions to the documentary De Nadie. I’m so glad we could work on it together.  It is very frustrating to have such complex thoughts and have to put those into simple sentences that we could translate.  We asked our host mom to review it to make sure our Spanish was correct, and we were happy to get the thumbs up from her!

As a reward for our hard work, we visited the Angelopolis Mall. It was a very high-end mall. It had a Prada, Michael Kors, Coach, and Burberry store, among others. The prices were very high; we went into a Sears thinking that we might find some good deals, but we couldn't find anything cheaper than about $50!


After shopping for a while, went to the Zocalo. It seems to be our standard hang out place.  We tried some of Puebla's world-famous churros. Yum! I'm amazed that they only cost about a quarter apiece. We walked the streets and window-shopped, and went into the Woolworth's (yep, WOOLWORTH'S).  It was a very busy place!  Lots of fun items but no Thank You cards and no power strips (I’m tired of only being able to charge 1 thing at a time).
