Lucha Libre

Friday night, we went to watch the wrestling (Lucha Libre). It was fantastico!

We were in a great big stadium with giant TV screens and vendors walking around selling Corona and pizzas. It all felt very american, and the wrestling was a lot like the WWE, except that 90% of the wrestlers were wearing masks. Its a big dishonour to have your mask removed apparently.

They were all very athletic, lots of jumping off the ropes and stuff. The final fight was some sort of three on three battle which ended up in the team who were clearly the peoples favourites winning with a double pin.

PEDROS! PEDROS!

Nice Mask...We just watched that episode of Angel where No. 5 the post guy at Wolfram & Hart is a mexican wrestling hero with his dead brothers!! Just kind of reminded me of that!!

It all looks amazing I'm glad you're having such a fab time, want to hear more about the proper mexican food, any chance of cooking lessons there so you can come back and throw a mexican party. In fact you could throw a party a month with a different country as a theme and cook food from each place....!
Not been very well so sorry for slightly delirious ramblings,

take care and watch out for chicken as I think he probably looks quite tasty to the hombres.
