Wait, the bus already left?!

Word of the Day: brincar - to jump on

Ohhhhh tiempo mexicano (Mexican Time). Friday was the excursion to Las Estacas, another water park. The night before all the kids were told that the buses would leave at 7am. In tiempo mexicano, that means anywhere from 7:15-8. Not yesterday. When Sophie and I arrived 10 minutes to 7 to catch the bus, we found the dorms deserted, the patio silent, and the lone portero (doorman) who told us the buses had left at 6:30am.

Of course we didn't get the memo.

Luckily we were able to catch a bus that returned at 9am (which had the breakfast anyways) and enjoyed the day as nothing had passed.

Conclusion of the day: no swimming stroke I do will ever be as efficient as my 15 years of experience doing doggy paddling.
