tour of downtown Veracruz and walking along the dock near the
ocean.
We shopped in many places and found the cup I was looking for. I
figured I'd bring my sister home a souviner.

shopping
We had a great meal at Gran Café. I discovered that down here
in
Mexico its okay to eat with your fingers and that was fun. 7,000
taxis
are in Veracruz according to the taxi drivers. That is
fortunate
since we needed several. I enjoyed myself. I'm
thankful for my new
friends. ~Steve
Dana wrote: Congratulations,
it is officially the last day of this year. Hasn't 2010 passed so
quickly? This year has been full of memorable experiences, but for me,
these last couple weeks have been quite special. The company that we
have here have really made an impact.
Today was our free day of the trip, so we started by touring the
downtown and looking at arts and crafts. Funny enough, Carolina, the
new governor was speaking in the town plaza, so we all got to see her.
We then went to lunch at our favorite place, The Gran Cafe. Finally we
went bowling with all the teenagers, which I really enjoyed.

Alex, Alejandra, Vianey, Rosa and Ana
It's always fun to experience something like that with people who have never had a chance to do it before. Everyone seemed to really enjoy themselves.
So since tonight is the last night of this year, we'll be having a
large, probably fancy new years dinner. All the older folks are
planning on going to bed at nine but the youngin's will be staying up
to welcome the new year.
I'd like to thank all the people keeping up with our blog about our
travels here, and hope everyone has a fantastic new year! ~Dana
