p-day

Our last p-day started at the temple with the sealing of James and Doranelle Torrez then we went downtown to sight see. Actually we just didn't have what it took to see a lots of sights so we just went to dinner at the Hilton Hotel at The Cardinal Restaurant.  It was wonderful food.  Then we walked a little but I think everyone was just tired so we started for home.  The traffic getting to the restaurant was exceptionally busy and slow.

El Cardenal Restaurant at the Hilton

I dont know what it is about these skeleton people that Mexico like so much.  We see them all the time.  These at the Hilton are dressed in various attire but are still the skeleton people.  

President Call knocked on the door  and surprisingly it opened.  The palace will not be open for a few more weeks.  But at least he (as a missionary) got his foot in the door.

 We drove through a street that seemed to be full of meat markets.



This is a picture of men dumping ground up something out of blue buckets.  It appeared to be meat.  They brought it out of the market in the blue buckets and then dumped it into the street and then shoveled it up into the truck that also had blue bucket it it.  The traffic was slow enough that we could if we wanted keep watching this process over and over.



All in all, I resolved to eat more beans, nuts and seeds instead of meat.
