My day started off with everyone in my Mexican host family greeting me and giving me a hug on my morning commute upstairs to the shower and was quickly followed by a mint cake for breakfast. It was very delicious!!!
Then at 10:30 for break at school I had chocolate cake with my classmates.
I ended my day with some yummy cheesecake!
Not only did I have three cakes, but three different types of tamales. Chile Verde, Vera Cruz (in a banana leaf), and Dulce (sweet).
For dinner my host family took me to a restaurant in the city's main plaza. This is what I walk past everyday, but it looks a lot cooler at night.
This is the government building. The mayors office is the top left part and is directly across from the cathedral. The host dad told me he will take me to meet the mayor sometime this month because they are good friends.
Here is the entertainment. My family showing me what they have learned in dance class.
Here is the restaurant. Our table was at the top, on level three.
This is the view from our table.

So all in all it was a pretty amazing day.
