fin de semana

What can I say? Sleep eat read sleep read sleep eat read eat sleep. Today we went to la supermercado. Lunch for 40 pesos instead of 200 pesos (10 pesos to the dollar). Prices for decent food in resteraunts here is a little cheaper than Portland. We've eaten for $6-12/person, but it's been adding up, so we've decided to cook for ourselves.

The store is fun. "What the heck do you think this is?" So many choices of fried pork rind. Bottles of sugar cane booze for two bux. We know enough Spanish to converse with the meat guy.

We learn the location of the tortilla bakery - Meighan comes back with a dozen wrapped in a piece of purple paper. 20 pesos, that is, about 20 cents. And they're still warm.

Tomorrow am we head to Tulum, Mayan ruins on the coast.

clue: don't get 100% DEET on anything other than mosquitos. I got some spray on the plastic of mi powerlibro viejo, and the anti-bug chemical left funny marks on the plastic. Kept the bug away, tho.
