This is my favorite photo. It is of a man giving someone a shoeshine in the early morning hours at the plaza.

Storefront



Street scene. Indians in this area do not like their photo taken because they believe you are stealing their soul. So I had to sneak this one.



Two Indian women talking. The one saw me taking the photo but didn't mind.

You are welcome my dear friend

We've pretty posted pictures about very interesting and exciting things about Mexico and mexican life, but we have forgotten to post an essential aspect of Mexico's modern life.

Parties!!! Ohhhh yeah baby, life without party is no life at all and Mexico's the party paradise.

Psychedelic parties in Mexico, in the forest, dessert, in the beach, everywhere

There are some very wonderful pictures here.. paints a different picture of Mexico that most border dwellers have of the country.

I have been deep into Mexico a couple of times, mostly to the coastal areas.. and I found it amazing when I was first there that most there speak great English.. Mexico does in fact have many beautiful regions... and some beautiful people. I love the pictures of the alleyways in Mexico.. reminded me of Europe.

I have been in Monterrey for a few days on vacation and felt the need to post some of the pics I took...
