Celaya



Update: I feel all better now. Here are some pics from Celaya, a small town about 2 hours away from Querétaro. Three international students and I went with a Mexican friend to stay at his house for the weekend. We basically explored the city and on Sunday had a huge- and absolutely delicious- barbacoa (like a BBQ but with no burgers and hotdogs). We ate like 8 different kinds of cooked vegetables, steak, chorizo (kind of like sausage), tortillas, beans, and potatoes. Well here are the pics from the town...

The group minus one. From left to right: Nav from Italy, Eronja from Italy, Daniel from Mexico, and some dude
There are street vendors all over Mexico
More vendors of the street
Center of the town with a bunch of monuments and statues.
There's the other guy- Nico from Belgium
Shoe shinin' station
From front to back: light post, steeple, water tower!
Beautiful plaza in the center of town
This is my attempt at an artsy shot

Things to come:
More about Querétaro, my city of residence.
A typical day in Mexico
Other international students

Prayers:
Obedience
Total satisfaction in Jesus
Clarity and confidence in why God has me in Mexico
For a fruitful relationship with my host family
Patience with learning Spanish
Confidence in my identity in Christ
Pray specifically for Augustine and Alan

  1. Awesome pics! I don't think I've ever seen you take pics before. And it's classic how you refer to yourself as "some dude."
