thursday morning arrived and it was time to head to puebla. i packed pretty light so this was the 1st day of recycled shorts. my clothes all smell the same and i am starting to look forward to being home- i am not a fan of fast food but i have a desire for a mcdonalds cheese burger and a good ole sweet tea- although the selection of fruit juices is very good especially the orange soda department- my fav. we hopped the bus and took a 2 hr ride watching licensed to wed- with jim from the office in it, it was def some bootleg which you can get all over for 10 pesos.
puebla is the 3rd largest city in mexico and it feels it. i am not sure the population but i would compare it to jacksonville. the way mexico is, the major cities are built around the major cities back 1500 years ago. every city has so much history and things to see. it doesn't compare to any city in the US as far as the vibe and feel of it. the central square here has a pretty big european flare to it. there is one main central square with a cathedral on one side then the other 3 are all restaurants. we kicked around the city some, checked out some with one of those double decker buses. it was the
best way to see it all. there are so many churches here that it would take forever to go to them all. besides, once you have seen one mural you have seen em most all of them. yeah there are some real stand out places but @ the same time there are lots of generic ones too. we checked out a band and dancers in the square and took the night pretty easy- the highlight of the evening was getting the stuff from the guy after dinner.
