La vida diaria mexicana

Well, definitely in need of another study break. Yes, today was one of three "full study" days, on this crazy vacation. I've taken some cool breaks though. Played in the ocean this morning (too much of an undertow at the resort to swim, so mostly just stood or sat in the water and tried to see if the waves could knock me over...they did a few times, but mostly just filled my swimsuit with sand). Swam 10 laps (in the pool) this afternoon. Took a hot tub break earlier tonight...so now...the blog break.

Some more (yes, more than a few) photos to share about daily life in Mexico...


This is the coconut palm just outside the door to my unit.


This is the pig that lives next door. Can't really tell from the photo, but he's huge. About 5-6 feet long.


A Domino's delivery bike. They have "Mexican" pizzas here (in addition to the usuals). The one with chorizo (spicy ground meat) and jalepenos is my favorite. Domino's is actually within walking distance, but I still thought the bikes were cute.


A sign close to Domino's. It didn't take me long to figure out that "mini super" is Mexican for convenience store, but the sign still put a big smile on my face.

This is the milk section at the grocery store. They actually do sell refrigerated milk too, they call it "leche fresca."
