Cultural Day

Every once in awhile our directors send us out on cultural days. They send us on a scavenger basically. Telling us places to go or information that we need to find. Today it was spend at least two hours at the cultural center, find the 4 statues, and get 50 pounds of beans at a market. To get to all these places take the local transportation, busses. "Here's a couple of bucks be back by the end of the day." Here's our adventure:

A short walk to the main street then an hour ride down town to Centro.


Then off the bus and onto finding the statues. The first statue we found...


yes, Abraham Lincon. Why in Mexico? We haven't figured that out yet but it is a cool statue of him.


Chatemoc (Indian chief) was the next statue and then two other guys who I forgot their names :]


Then we headed over to the Cultural Center where we found out that almost all of the exhibits (it was like a museum) were under construction...therefore we went to the IMAX hoping to spend our 2hrs watching "Sea Monsters" "Panda Adventure" or "The Alps" but no that was closed too. So we finally found the two exhibits that weren't closed. One on Buddhism and the other on modern art. they weren't allowing pictures inside so we only have pictures of the oustide.



Then for lunch we found a small cafe, pretty excited for our food because it was now about 2.


But it wasn't as good as we hoped...


Then down a couple of blocks, a quick stop at the best coffee shop, for our beans at the market. Then to find a bus and get back with our 50lbs of beans.




And it was suppose to rain all day but it never did except for the times we were inside buildings, Thanks God!
