On Sunday we went on a scavenger hunt around Cuernavaca that took about 2 and half hours.
We had to go the cathedra, a restaurant, a bus stop, a garden called Jardin Borda and something else I cannot remember. I have decided that so far one of my favorite places I have been is the courtyard of the cathedral where I saw la boda or the wedding.
Today we had a morning of orientation where we met all of the staff who work at the house and spoke with them in small groups and did a lot of activities. This included about 35 people.
Then mis companeros y yo went back into town to the Zocalo which is the center of town near the Palace of Cortes. We walked around for a good two hours and I bought some notebooks in a store where I used my Spanish successfully. Two notebooks cost 26 pesos, or a little over 2 american dollars. We walked arond the artesan market and down a lot of streets where I recorded the name of some good looking restaurnts. It is really cool because a lot of the restaurants in Cuernavaca have live entertainment, mostly music at nighttime.
We got back and had dinner and I went running! Only for 30 minutes but it was still hard because of the elevation and it is very hilly here.
Tomorrow I have a Latin Dance class at night time.
Friday we are going to a cafe called La Comuna for dinner to have an "intercambio" with Mexican Univesity students.
Then on Sunday I am going on an excursion to Teotihaucanan where there are pyramids. It is about a 4 hours drive from Cuernavaca.
