We'll be back

We're going out of town for today and tomorrow, so no new posts until we recover from New Year's, but in order to placate our (1) reader(s) -- hi, mom -- here's a video from last year of one of the places we're going.



And also because you deserve some quality film occasionally, check out this video created by Televisa honoring Mexico's bicentennial. Yucatan is a gorgeous state, and we're glad to be here. By the way, the first Mayan ruins they show are at Uxmal -- we're going there tomorrow!

It's my birthday!


Feliz cumpleaños, Sital!

Feed us, Harvey!


We went to the port at Progreso on Wednesday and got a nice little tour, but some of us coughAmandacough were a little more interested in getting lunch than learning about what they do.

Now that's a fish!

 Brandon was the only brave one who ordered a fish whole. Eww. To each his own, I guess.

 

Here's a pic of the group at Flamingos, a seafood restaurant on the beach at the port of Progreso.
Burns, I'll pay you 15 pesos right here and now to make a normal face in our pictures. Por favor y gracias.

Cinépolis: Mediocre movies made better

 
I will bake cookies for the first person who wants to invest in getting the Jackson Metro area a VIP movie theater.  Everyone needs this.
We watched Tron 3D last night.... Or at least, we went to go see it.  Some of us napped.  Regardless, by the time you add recliners and waiters to bring you baguettes or sushi to go along with your chili popcorn, no one really notices if the movie bombed or not.

John Pemberton plays soccer?

 Oh no! Which one is John?
 John and Juan Pemberton
For some reason los futbolistas wanted a picture with the girls.. Why not?

Below is a video of Justin (gray shirt) and Brandon (no shirt) playing a little soccer, with commentary from the peanut gallery.. Despite appearances in these videos, they actually did pretty well and scored quite a few times.

Monday Night Football.. in Mexico?





This is why no updates have happened yet--but I promise we have had real class!
