So my last week in Mexico will definitley leave me with a sweet taste in my mouth! I have just returned from a vacation at the beach due to the ¨Puente¨ or break we had from school. The break was a result of Children´s Day, Worker´s Day, and Cinco de Mayo. What a nice five day weekend! Elyse and I traveled to Rincon de Guayabitos for our time off, a small beach near Puerto Vallarta. We were expecting a much more relaxed and quiet atmosphere, since we weren´t going all the way to Vallarta, but we were wrong. Due to the long break, the beach was packed with families, vendors, and people trying to get us to pay for all sorts of rides and attractions. It was still a nice relaxing time, trying to avoid letting the Mexican sun get the best of us.
Our last night in Rincon, we stayed out and watched the sun set over the beautiful Pacific Ocean. It was a wonderful time to sit and think about all of the things that we have seen and done here in Mexico and to think about the fact that a week from now we will be graduated and off into the real world! I just hope that when I get a few months into real teaching that I don´t start to expect a nice six week vacation to Mexico! We have definitley been spoiled here and have had the best of luck with almost everything we have done--not without a few adventures, of course. I can´t wait to see how these last few days play out for us here in Guadalajara!
