Mexican House Party
I arrived in Monterrey around noon on December 28, and I'm suppose to head south to Queretaro to meet Yana, whom I've met in Korea. She was kind enough to give me all the directions, address, and phone number so that I could easily make it to her city. However, I was stupid enough to leave all this info at home, so I had to figure my way out. I tried to find the internet to access all this info but had no luck.
Therefore, I took a taxi from the airport to bus station, and was asking for busses to qutero or something like that as I didn't even remember the name of her city. At some point they wanted to send me to Acapulco, but finally I've recognized the name of the city on the destination list. I got on a bus around 3pm, and at midnight I was in Queretaro. I figured it would be easier to find a hotel then an internet in the middle of the night, so I asked around and ended up in this funny hotel where all the furniture were already build into the room, and just painted over.
Next morning I've managed to find internet connection, got the phone numbers and called Yana. We've met for a lunch since she was still at work, and then I went to wonder around until she got out of work. After that, we went to her place, relaxed, and then we headed to the bar and then to this Mexican house party. At first I was holding really well, considering the amount of alcohol I consumed, but then everyone at the party figured that it will be interesting to get me really drunk. In an instant, I was given huge shots of tequila, and it did the magic. I also drunk this funny drink which is made out of beer, spices, and I guess sugar. I tastes like kitchen spices used for cooking.
Yesterday, we went to the small city called San Miguel. It was very pretty, filled with churches, and historical sites. Also, Queretaro and the cities nearby played an important role in terms of fight for independence. Tonight we're going to celebrate New Year's Eve, and in a day or two I will head somewhere south. I should also add, that I changed my plans and I'm not going to go to South America since I realized how huge the distances are, and I would simply spend all this time on a bus. Therefore, I'll stay longer in Mexico, and then just hang out in Central America with a possible trip to Cuba.
