Breakfast!
Rob had beef & eggs. I had cheese and nopal cactus...pretty tasty. Yesterday morning our friends said that we needed a good breakfast so they served us fish tacos! Marlin! It was very good and quite a surprise! Mazatlan did have some juice bars like jamba juice but with more choices. We are getting very excited about checking out the two cities we came to see. Tomorrow first day of the convention!

Pics
Grandchildren, how do you like the school uniforms? The city picture is from around the airport! The truck is a roving bakery, yummm
Wednesday
Went to meeting last night. They have many native English speakers, most are from Canada. A couple of families are from Cali. One sister was from Australia. We left Mazatlan for Mexico city. We flew. Flying was about the same price as taking a bus. We got a room at the Marriott which was one of the hotels on the list for the Mexico city English convention. Nice room. Gotta go, rob wants to eat! He doesn't think having only breakfast is enough!

Mazatlan Observations
Most of us have heard about the crazy driving in Mexico, it is all true here in Mazatlan! You never really know how many lanes there are supposed to be. There are cars all over the place. The rule seems to be if you can fit your car in the space then you do it. The brother we are staying with gave up his motorcycle because of the traffic. The congregation lost a sister last year who drove a vespa type bike. Buses here kill a lot of people both in cars-motorcycles and pedestrians. So when you hear the warnings about Mexico don't forget about the traffic! Oh did I mention that people ride in the back of trucks and some trucks have benches and are carpooling type vehicles. It is common to fit 7 in a sedan with front bucket seats!
