A Winsor Family Visit
The Winsor fam came to visit!! Our first activity after they left the airport was dinner, and what's better than tacos?! Yuly and I took them to the "Taco Street" as we like to call it which is about a 5-minute walk from our house. We ordered two of each kind, including tongue, intestine, eye, and brain. A truly fun (and at points challenging) experience!!
Mara eating her favorite kind of Taco- Al Pastor!!

Parents in the big park in the city center
Mexican breakfast I made them! A dish called "Molletes." It's bread toasted with refried beans and melted cheese, then pico de gallo and avocado on top. We ate it with pastries and guavas
A photo after my family visited Casa Tochan, the migrant shelter I am serving at this year. It was so special to have them visit such a special place!

We went to a nightime picnic held for free by the city´s local government in the city´s hugest public park called Chapultepec
The church/my house is super close to the airport, and the church has a roof that you can go on top off, also after the picnic we came back and watched the planes for awhile. We also did our best to get pictures with them
a huge donation of cups and water bottles at the shelter
