Zocalo--"So this is the square in Puebla near the Cathedral. And this is my last day of the conference, and it's probably around two o'clock. And it is ridiculously hot. And it's just absolutely gorgeous."
I love old fashion VW Bugs and they were everywhere!!
The "walk" signs in Puebla actually had little men moving on them, which I found fun. So, I videotaped one with my camera. He he he.
Watermelon with Lemon squeezed over it is definitely to die for.
