On Sunday we walked around town and just relaxed and took in the sights.
Our hotel has a great breakfast included with our room. One thing I was not expecting was Jello. They love Jello in Mexico. I had a language mishap when getting coffee. They’re was a carafe of coffee but I wanted the waiter to pour it for me. I was afraid of spilling it. I should have said:
tengo miedo – I have fear, or I’m afraid.
unfortunately I said:
tengo mierda – I have shit.
I realized it right away but didn’t know how to explain it so I just took my coffee and ran.
After breakfast we walked around and I tried not to take photos of every building. We heard music and stumbled on a orchestra.
We also stumbled upon a fried grasshopper saleslady.
We saw several more vendors. I guess they are in season. We didn’t try them.
Puebla is famous for their pottery. I may need to buy some. It would be a nice addition to our storage locker.
For dinner we went to a Mezcalería which is like a wine bar but for Mezcal. Mezcal is like tequila but made from different kinds of agave. We told the bartenders what we liked in flavors and they brought us different ones to try. I don’t like Mezcal but they found one that I liked.
Almost every restaurant we go to I order chips and guacamole. I skipped it here. You can see why when you read the menu.
We got these instead. They did not have any grasshoppers in them.
Lots of adventures in Puebla. I never thought about going there before but now I think I might 😊
We didn’t either until we got to Mexico City. We are so glad we came.
I get why you want to avoid the grasshoppers, but they probably have a nice crunch😆
We stumbled upon an orchestra in Glasgow last month, maybe this is a thing… orchestras in the wild, or maybe it’s the same pop-up orchestra?
Pop up Orchestras woulds make the world a better place. It makes me want to learn an instrument.
Haha tengo mierda. 🙂
I now tengo miedo to ever say another word in Spanish. Of course if I’m ever afraid I pooped my pants I know what to say.
What’s with the grasshoppers? I saw there was hot sauce next to that big bag of them.
Also, I suppose having fear could make you shit, so….? 😉
Looks like you’re having fun!
Ha yes I think both a statements I’m afraid and I have shit would apply if I tried one.
I hope you are feeling better…. Having the “meridas” sounds messy and uncomfortable 😉. But I will probably remember this lesson for future reference
Ha yes it sucked but was short lived.
