     Tio Toņo asked if I would post a message of the town and adventure I will a share a few things that I learned on my spanish inundation adventure in Guanajuato.
  1. If you are dancing with a pretty girl, do not tell her: "" eras caliente "".
  2. After you see her reaction don't try to fix what ever you said by saying that ""fue hablando del chile"".
  3. When someone wants to introduce you to somebody it is ""presentar"" not introducier.
  4. A woman a little older is not un poco mas vieja. Esta grande y absalutamente no es anciana.

Yes, I had to straighten out a bit of my spanish to fit Guanajuato but how I loved it. It was like walking into a 15th century Spanish town. Como Espaņa. I am collecting ceramics. I met the famous Gorki potter whom invited me into his studio, house, and garden where we spoke of our adventures around the world for hours. A true embassador. I was truly blessed and impressed on this adventure. Fox arrived for the opera one night and the guards and weapons were everywhere. I did catch two police in a back alley or callejon with thier hands around a kids throat asking for 100 pesos. That was a little uncomfortable. The police hung their heads and walked away in shame. The kid thanked me as if I were a saint and then went and bought another bottle. That was the beginning.
