El Rollo & Discoteca & Feliz Cumpleaños Nihal!

Sabado and Domingo – 7/8 de Julio.

Día 23 & 24. “El Rollo & Discoteca & Feliz Cumpleaños Nihal!”

                Sorry all! I have been slacking a little bit this weekend, but I promise I have a good excuse! Well, not really- other than that I have been having a lot of fun. Yesterday was jam packed, we barely had time to take a break to breath, and then today was relaxing but we spent the whole day away from home. It is sad to think this was our last weekend spent here in Cuernavaca with our host families, because next weekend we will be spending in Mexico City before returning home. Where has time gone?

                Yesterday, early in the morning we headed to school so we could hop on a bus to head to El Rollo, a water park about an hour and a half away. To our surprise when we got on the bus we were not the only people, and there was another group of guys there with their dad that would be spending the day with us at the water park. On the bus ride there we practiced quite a bit of Spanish and they practiced their English- and throughout the day we had plenty of laughs while being lost in translation at times. El Rollo was an amazing waterpark- the slides were ridiculous, lazy river amazing, but I am not going to lie; a lifeguards worst nightmare! (:

                After a long day in the sun we had plans to go out to the Discoteca last night- and after spending all day with the other group of guys they decided they wanted to come with. So last night spending the night in El Centro, then the discoteca was by far the best night we have had in Mexico so far. To top it all off- Nihal’s birthday was today so when it hit midnight our group had a lot of fun. After returning home we watched a movie and finally got to bed early this morning. Waking up the go to the vacation house this morning was definitely no struggle though- knowing that we got to hang out by the pool and in the sun for another day. It is sad knowing this was our last time at the house with our family.

                Today was spent by the pool, playing card games with the family, celebrating Nihal’s birthday, and evening attempting to play Clue with the kids visiting their vacation house nearby. That was quite interesting, considering they spoke barely any English at all. It was fun though, and we tried many new foods today- including my creation; Mango and Avocado Fajitas- with meat and vegetables as well of course! It was surprisingly good. After a long day we didn’t get home till around 11 and still had homework and journals to complete. Well here I am now- typing a blog because I can’t get any more behind, off to do more homework! Buenos Noches! (:
