The last day in Ocotlan

If we listed all the things we have done in two short weeks, you would never believe it was even possible.  I will let today's (a slow day by our standards) images speak for themselves.

At the school, we are rock stars with kids asking us for our autographs

Head, shoulders, knees and toes

The story is less interesting that the photo suggests..the town took us out for lunch

The reading even in our honor grew to become a city wide festival

Anna reading in Spanish to the crowds


A brief detour to the local church

Marching in the calenda (parade) promoting reading awareness

Still rock stars!!

An impromptu reading during the parade

Fun at the night time town festival

One of the endless bands...I can still hear them playing from my bedroom right now


Tilt-a-whirl Mexican style...guys jump on the ride and spin you

  1. Phil on tilt-a-whirl - what a combination! And what a banner last day in Ocotlan. Can't wait to hear about your experience as English teachers. I am so impressed with Anna reading aloud to the town!
