MEXICO
While in Mexico today we purchase some supposedly hand made blankets, there is a funny store behind the blankets. We also bought Tequila that would usually cost $50 in the USA but in Mexico only cost $20. What a bargain!!!!!! Here is the funny part of the whole day. We went to a place they call a swap meet which on the east coast we call them flea markets. So we first walk in the door where we saw some blankets that we liked, the guy fooled us by saying he usually charges $20 but for us he will give it to us for $15, so we bought one. We continued walking around and came across another vendor selling the same blankets but this time we got 4 for $20. The 1st guy is probably still laughing at those stupid Americans. Anyway we had a great time and would probably do it again as long as someone who knows what to do comes with us because you can get really lost there unless you can read Mexican writing. Every street sign along with every other sign is in Mexican language.
Well until our next venture

Love the color of the bottles...they're cool looking!
All the blankets look very pretty. #3's my favorite, followed by #1 :)
If you're gonna go back to those type of places, you really have to learn how to talk 'em down. It's a real artform, but one that I'm sure with your gift of gab you'll be a wiz in no time.
p.s.,
Of course all the street signs were in Mexican, silly. You were in Mexico, weren't you?...lol. They aren't like the U.S. and have it listed in both Spanish and English.
Well as much as American are putting their businesses in Mexico they should accomidate us a little don't you think.
The blanket thing is pretty funny since Papa's sister Cheryl said the same thing.
