We went to the market today to get some vegetables. I got a bag of strawberries, two grapefruit, one onion, and two tangerines for 33 pesos. Then we stopped at the fish market for another sierra, for 20 pesos.
Larry did a great job cooking the fish. We did have one bolillos left which he made garlic bread with.
Today is the day of the Kings. This is the day they open their Christmas gifts. It is also the end of the Christmas holiday season.
They had tables set up all around the plaza. On the tables they had loaves of bread. The bread looked like French bread, with some kind of candy on top. All the kids stood on one side of the tables and waited for some people to slice the bread then they got to eat it. The adults also got a slice. It was sweet white yeast bread.
After the bread was handed out we went back to the bungalow. There was some very loud music playing, too loud for us.
