When your shorts are wet, it's hard to keep them up!

 When I come to Mexico, I never quite know what the day will bring.

Today started out by going to the 8:00 church service with my friends. Most of the time 99.99% of the words are not understood by me. Today, it was more like 99.1% so my Spanish is getting slightly better.

Afterward my friends asked “Why don’t we go to the beach”? I had the best intentions of having a purposeful day studying and reading, but hey, who can turn down the beach?


It ended up being an awesome day full of sun, friendship and laughter.

Checkout this video of my friend's 2 year old. Each time his shorts were pulled up, they would just drop. He (and the rest of us) thought that was hilarious!


It's the simple things in life that make you laugh and get forgotten in a normally busy day.

We even found some ice cream that a guy sold us out of the back of a Nissan hatchback.

The next day, there was a motorcycle tire to repair.

I’m hoping to use this while I’m here. I would call it more of a scooter, but they call it a motorcycle, so we’ll go with that. There could be some danger due to it’s top speed, ability to come up to speed and the lack of mirrors, but of course there will be adventure also.

Luckily I have my motorcycle license. Check out this traffic stop where the police were impounding motorcycles if the driver didn’t have a motorcycle license.



Sometimes we think that Mexico is a lawless society and the cartels run everything. That is not true. There are rules and regulations and like other places in the world, people try to do the right thing and be good citizens.
