Dolores











This is a picture of a devil hugging my dad




Today I went to Dolores with my family. When we got there we went to a pottery shop. They had some very pretty pottery. After that we went to several ice cream stands. Once we got to the ice cream stands all of the people were saying try this one, try that one. I tried over ten flavors of ice cream on the plaza. After all of those testers I got a chocolate in a cone. I ate half of it and got so full that I had to throw it away. We walked to the mercado and saw over twenty ukeleles and about four violins. Upstairs there were all sorts and shapes of mirrors. Some of them were as big as a window. Enjoy the pictures!

Dolores














































About two days ago my mom and a friend went to Dolores HGO. My mom took pictures of pottery, and a lot of devils. I think you will like the pottery a lot. Some of the devils scare me. Why I don't know. Maybe because of their faces ortheir bodys I don't know. My mom said the ice cream is realy good. She got chocolate ice cream yum,yum,yum. Here are some pictures. I hope you like them.

The Alters








One night ago my family went to go see all of the alters for Viernes De Dolores. In Mexico the alters are a very spirtual thing. We went to many houses and saw all of the alters. I thought they were very serious. When I went to one of the alters my friend Hadley was there. It was a suprise to see her there. The alter at my school was the biggest one I have ever seen out of all of them. By the time we got home it was very, very,very late and I was all tired out so I went to bed.

Salsa Dancing

Today, which is Thursday, I went to a salsa class and learnd how to dance salsa. There was a very, very, nice man who taught it . He taught us the basic movies. I was a little scared at first but I got through it. I never knew salsa classes were so fun. There were other people there too. My mom and dad did the class also. They did pretty good. During the last thirty or forty minutes my sister came in and danced with the teacher. He taught my sister all sorts of new moves. I have never seen the moves before. Then the class ended and I went home for a hour. Then at one o'clock I went back to the school and did a cooking class and during the class I got a very, very bad headache. The principal, Sarah, gave me some tylenol and I felt a little better. After I got the tylenol I went back to the mexican cooking and ate very delicious pozole, quesadillas, and for dessert I had key lime pie. After that was all over I walked home and took a nap.
