A Mexican Wedding

The weekend after my birthday, I went to a Mexico Wedding in Mexico City with one of my friends from school who lives in the dorms with Kate and Nishi. She invited us and another one of our other Mexican friends. It was her cousin's wedding and she was one of the bridemaids. Her dad got us a chofer for the weekend. The wedding was on Saturday around 5 and the reception began at 8. It wasn't too much different from any other wedding except for the music and the dancing. They also had a Mariachi band come in, which is something you don't often see at non-Mexican weddings. The food was great and there were about 150-200 people there. On Sunday, we went to Xochimilco (try pronouncing that one) which is a place with coloful boats. I will post pictures above this post. I got Ariel a minature version of the boat so she can play in the bathtub. I have a picture with it so you all can see. Well that's it for now! I'm in the homestretch in school. I just did a presentation in one of my classes on Thursday on a work of art completely in Spanish and it went well. I should be getting really good grades in all my classes, I worked hard all semester. I can't wait to share my stories with everyone. If there is anything in particular anybody wants from here, let me know!!! Tim and Mary, I got you both really great gifts so dont worry haha.
