Feliz Año 2016

I did go to the gringo party on the 26th.  It was enjoyable but I just don’t want to be speaking English so I’ll pass next time.  I was invited to a New Year’s Eve party at a teacher’s house.  It was interesting to see their home in a historic building near Alhondiga.  It was a typical Mexican party (in my experience), very fun, and we stayed up all night.  Needless to say that I spent much of the 1st sleeping and recovering.

Merry Christmas 2015

I have completed six weeks of Spanish school and have at least six more to go.  Went for turkey dinner at the neighbor’s Christmas Eve.  The owner of my house prepared breakfast Christmas morning for three of her friends and I was invited.  The group then went for a hike up a local mountain.  The weather was sunny and warm, as it is again today, as is the forecast for the coming week.  Am invited to a “gringo” party tonight.  Don’t really want to go but I guess I *should*.
