spring break

i´m here in beautiful (humid!) puerto escondido. i´m currently at an outdoor internet cafe (sweating, of course), watching espn´s news ALL about the yankees (boo). i sat down here just in time to see the bucks lose to florida. :(

the red sox are on!! unfortunately, it looks as if this season started off with a 7-1 to the kansas city royals. yet another boo. not a good sports day for me!

i´m tanner, un poco más sunburned, and we have an outdoor shower at our house, so that´s absolutely fabulous after a long day at the beach.

i just had dinner at a portuguese restaurant, where i was served the most amazing likeness to an indian curry that i´ll probably ever have in mexico. considering i´ve had about 5 dreams involving ambar india in the past month, this was basically the most exciting thing to happen to me. the owner enjoyed me and amanda alot, and gave us chocolate cake on the house. and i had a mojito. goodness. happy stomach.

i think tomorrow i´m going to try to hit up the organic coffee co-op near town, since coffee growers are muy cerca de mi corazón (to use an eric-ism). waking up late and sitting outside drinking coffee and eating bananas has been the life, as well.

i also think we´re going to check out the surfers´ beach sometime soon. you know, check out guys and all that fun stuff. sam & dan will surely enjoy that too, eh?

i might go now, so i dont have to pay a whole dollar for this internet use! (it´s about 50 cents for a half hour)

landon donovan is on tv now. goodness. i guess i´ll watch him for awhile.....

Ah, yes, the Mexican surfer boys. I'll be anxiously awaiting your return to Puebla away from the illusion of gorgeous surfer boys. Do not get "Surfer Girls" stuck in your head.

Ambar got voted "Best Indian" food in City Beat again this year (for the gazillionth time). Also Kristen B. was named "Best Practical Progressive" and the Franciscan Friars down in OTR were voted "Best Do-Gooders".

I'll put the issue in your room for when you get home. Lots of new restaurants for you to sample, now there you're so steeped in international cuisine. Many of them are in Northside.

Have fun the rest of break. Love, Dad
