LIVE EARTHQUAKE INFORMATION FOR MEXICO SERVICIO SISMOLOGICO NACIONAL |
|||||
These blogs lasted a little over 4 years, from Febrero 2003 to Agosto 2007. I have reflected on my life in the state of Queretaro and my first years of living in mainland Mexico. I discovered that living in Baja is not Mexico at all, I spent four years and had great times in Cabo - met alot of fun drunken tourists and Expats that I guess you could call 'social friends or amigos', but there is nothing in Baja California that can prepare you for the 'real' Mexico. Below are a few links to some of the best of my Mexican blogs, information about Mexico, her people and cultural ways, plus some of my frustrated rants... warning, it gets a bit political at times! The entire archive is available to your left.
M E X I C O H O L I D A Y C E L E B R A T I O N S El Grito , Dia de la Independencía (Mexico's Independence Day Celebrations) Virgen de Guadalupe (Our Lady of Guadalupe) La Posadas , Navidad Celebrations... , A Mexican Christmas Story (the festive Navidad - Christmas season) Tres Reyes Magos , mas Reyes (the Three Magic Kings) Dia de los Muertos , mas Muertos , y mas Muertos! , Muertos Fotos (Dead's Day...) Bendición de los Animales (Saint Anthony's Day... when all animals are blessed) La Matanza (Day of the Slaughter of the lambs, in Puebla) Mexican Revolution (Viva la Revolution) Urban Legends (the myths and stories passed down throughout Mexico) Benito Juarez's Birthday (cumpleaños) Looks like I didn't touch too heavily on a couple important holidays in México, like the 'Santa Semana' holy week (Easter) - probably because Mexico is pretty much closed that week and I can't get any business done! Nor the holiest of all days 'Dia de la Madre' (Mother's Day), May has so many freakin' holidays that they out-number the work days....
M E X I C A N P O L I T I C S & C U L T U R E Mexican Comida, Some Of Mexico's Favorite Foods Escamoles (gourmet food of the gods...) Mexico's Favorite Fast Food! (is it tacos? hamburgers?...check it out!) 'Mini' Cokes (gourmet coke with real pure cane sugar...)
The Politics Of Culture... The Juniors... (Mexico's rich kids, the 'loser' generation) Walmart , lies... , lies... , lies....... (yes, we hate Walmart) Carte Blanc For Mexico's Child Molesting Priests... (excused by the Vatican) Mexican's Don't Get Mad... They Get Even! (read and learn...) The Earthquake of 1985... (the devastating Mexico City quake) Mexico's Parallel Government Is Born... (corporate money vs the people) Suenos Mexicanos... , mas Suenos , y Sex Suenos... (Mexico dreams...) Oaxaca Guerras (the war in Oaxaca and the thriving corruption) Aztlan... (home) Milagros (Mexico's little miracles) Staying Legal In Mexico... (from 10 years of experience...) Street Dogs Or... Family Pets? (animal controllers or... dog killers!) ¡Mexico Online! (Mexican get plugged in...) We hope you have enjoyed these blogs and that some of them have given you a special insight into living in Mexico and the way the game is played. If I decide to start up a 'new' blog, a link will be put on this page to direct you to that new site. In September we left the state of Queretaro (after 6 years) and found a haven, paradise if you will, away from it all... we are still in Mexico, a bit hotter and more humid here than in the cold valley we used to live in. But, this estado (state) seems more like a completely different country, than just a different state... the land of Rey Coliman.
