Habla Espanol?

Back from Mexico. Tijuana is the one sad city. Bad roads, crazy drivers, the heat... I was working since 8.30 in the morning to abt 8 at night so didn't visit many places. Was put up at Grand Hotel, which is supposed to be the best hotel there. I used to have breakfast at the hotel restaurant. Huge breakfast... so much meat and beans and taco.... I liked their food. For lunch I used to go to a restaurant close to the client factory. I especially like the chicken enchiladas there. Again I had a problem with communicating since everyone here speaks spanish... picked up a few words... gracias(thank you), Coka(coke) and cafe(coffee). Juan had told me that once I be in mexico, i'll never feel like coming back. Soooo true. At the border I had big problems. A brown guy who already graduated and working on OPT leaving the country seems shady to these guards. Was kept waiting for 2 hours while they did a background check. One of the security guards was jewish and was very friendly and we got talking in no time.... He knew more abt India than I know. Has a cousin in Bombay.

So now that I am Atlanta I feel good. Hans is flying from Germany today and will be with him in Huntsville, Alabama one whole week.
