A Mexican Wedding
We took cabs to the wedding site, which is a half-hour away from the hotel. The bill came to 80 pesos ($8). Again, not bad.
We ate great food: noodles with mole, tofu with broccoflower, mushrooms, and onions in a hot sauce, some fruit cup thing, and some spicy after-lunch thing. We washed everything down with horchata, tequila, and cerveza. The caterers did an excellent job of making sure our needs were met.
We played frisbee with Amalio's sons, Eric and John, and Amalio's nephew, Javier. We listened to the mariachis play for Amalio's daughter, Rigel, and her husband, Paul. We danced and juggled limes and danced some more.
The party started winding down, and so we caught another cab back to the hotel. It's nearly midnight here. We'll be getting up early tomorrow morning to sightsee. Afterwards, we'll be taking the Estrella Roja bus to Mexico City, where we'll be staying at the NH Hotel in the Zona Rosa.

Well, the brief ceremony was indoors, but the reception was under the tents outside, with a view to two volcanoes (one active, one dormant). We'll be posting pictures soon, as long as the monitor works (it has fixed itself for now.)
Shel didn't sleep well; we'll include the details in the next post. She's taking a kitty nap right now, before we head out to explore Puebla some more.
Hi Dad! We´ll be back on the 21st, so we probably won´t see you before you leave. When do you get back? We´ll have to get together when you do! Have fun in Texas and Mexico! =)
Yes, it´s true Jason was getting funky on the dance floor. He just may have to start taking some breakdancing lessons! Amalio, do you have pictures?
