Friday arvo

Left: wandering Tlaquepaque with Ty and Eli (aka in English: Liz)


After the cemetary, we wander around looking for lunch. It's Good Friday, and not much is open, except for the Chinese buffet. You know, I always expect Asian people to speak English. It's a weird experience to be greeted with "Buenas tardes" in perfect Spanish. The Chinese is not bad.

The afternoon is spent wandering around Tlaquepaque, with Eli and Ty. Ty tells a story, in a broad Southern accent, about some homeless guy who broke into a morgue and had his way with a corpse. Some buddy of his was in the police. It's a hell of a way to learn about what's going on out there. Some images you just dooooon't wanna think about.

Turns out that Eli prefers to be called Liz, but the teachers started calling her Eli.
