fun day

i felt so very much better today. thank you so much for all your prayers. they really helped. we decided today would be a fun day. so, naturally that meant shopping. for breakfast i had this wonderful starwberry, pineapple juice. it was all natural. then we went shopping. got a whole lot accomplished. i won't have a whole lot of Christmas shopping left (which is a very good thing). super cute things for such great prices. we went all over town. survived 2 more taxi rides. ate some American food, it was so good. no more torillias for a bit.

we went to the zococalo again and our sliver man was there. i wish i would have had a video camera there. it was so much fun. we didn't put any pesos in his bucket though.

we went to a cathedrial, it was so very sad. i hope my pictures turn out. people are in such bondage to the "church" here. when we went to the indoor market they were paying homage to the virgin of jequila she's the one that was to bless the market. it was demonic. they had a merichai band singing to her and everything. it was this little bitty head with this huge, and i mean huge dress. then as the congregation passed they kissed the little window in hopes to be blessed by it, and to have their prayers answered, and there were amulets all over the back of it. i could not believe the bondage that was in it. there is no way to describe it at all.

we were walking home and there was a whole bunch of people under an awning on cardboard mats. i asked what it was, and then we realized that tomorrow is a parade for political things. their election is getting ready to come up. these people sleeping under the awning are going to protest the politicians. like anarchy sort of thing. i thought that was rather interesting. it's like 50 some degrees if not cooler (that is super cold here, it would be like our 0 degrees).

now for something sad. we were passing by and they have posters plastered to the wall. it was for a concert. it said "kill the Christians, in tribute to Satan." there was even a band named "Herepes" it even had the "f" word on it. it was so greiving. i just couldn't believe my eyes. perversion and profanity was/is everywhere. i really can't believe it. you know how in the States these things are hidden, like idol worship and perversion and profanity, but it is so blatent here. it's out in the open and it's very much accepted, no not accepted, embraced. it's so horrible. but this city is so beautiful. there is no way to explain it.

well, tomorrow morning we have to leave our little house. we're sad about it, but we are moving across town to the hotel that is hosting the confrence speakers. that will be nice as well.

that's it for the night.
until tomrrow,
voya con Dios
