The weather is amazing.

It is perfect. That's one aspect of St. Louis I am not missing one bit. I can do anything I want outside and it is gorgeous.

I returned to Wal-Mart so I am now a hypocrite. But I tried to go to a Mexican Supermarket and it didn't have anything I was used to eating or that I thought I could make, so I went back to Wal-mart and got what I needed. I went to the gym near my house and for six months it comes to 1375 pesos... only a hundred bucks! And this place looks like a country club. I haven't signed up yet because they require something with my address on it (though my name won't be on it) and my passport.

I also explored today; I left my comfort zone and tried to find some places that I looked up last night (bars, downtown, other things to do) and though I didn't find anything in particular I know where the neighborhood's at now and I got home without any problems. I also finally found the "casa de cambio" in the mall next to the Wal-Mart so I could exchange my American money for pesos. I had my car washed in the mall parking lot yesterday - I should have taken a picture. These guys have these ... carts ... and they roll them around to customers asking if they want their cars washed while they shop. I did it, and it wasn't as good as if I had done it, and apparently I got "taken," but it was only like 4 bucks, so it is what it is.
