Cuernavaca: One Last Day At The Pool

Early this morning Ruben brought Juan to the bus station. Juan's on his way back to México City, and from there he wants to continue northward towards Guanajuato, and then Guadalajara, where his brother's wedding will take place in a few days' time.

Today's highlight (besides swimming in the pool) was a bbq, early evening, at Ruben and Tati's place.

I also took the opportunity to take pictures of Ruben and Tati's place. They have a nice little "nest" here!

Here are the pictures from our bbq: we had carne asada, but unlike the cuts that we're used to in Vancouver, the meat was really thinly sliced. They have a special name here for this cut, but I forgot what it is right now. Another new experience for me was bbq'd nopal (cactus). It tasted good, although a bit dry. Nopal is a common dish here. We also prepared cebollitas (small onions), sausages, and a salad.



































































Finally, we went for a night swim. Actually, we've been doing this virtually every night, but this photo's the only one worth posting. My night-shooting skills are lacking (and my tripod's broken!).
