- Mexico is very big
- and very beautiful
- and very alive
- and has more mountains and ruins than you can shake a stick at
- speed bumps in Mexico are vicious
- I am tall in Mexico
- in Mexico, beer is good with salt and limes, and sometimes chili powder
- in Mexico, toilet paper usually doesn't go in the toilet
- in Mexico, finding food not made of corn can be tricky
- Mexico City is called D.F.
- in D.F. you thank air pollution for not getting sunburnt
- in Mexico, hotels are cheap and plentiful, why book ahead?
- ... or maybe things are just quiet because of the influenza
- in Mexico, ugly grey brick houses are only painted with advertisements
- in Mexico everything is for sale, everywhere. The "in-flight service" on a bus i D.F. is better than on most airplanes
- Mexicans love color and sound
- That siren means gas is for sale, the evening whistle means tamales
- Mexicans love museums
- Mayan culture is still quite alive in Mexico, those colorful costumes are not worn for the benefit of tourists like us
- in Mexico, you decorate your car
- in Mexico, babies do not ride in carriages, they are tied to their mothers in slings
- in Mexico, the places we could consider living are all full of expats who got here first
We liked Mexico.
