| Of course, we saw many sights, when we
traveled. But there was one day in our trip, and I will never forget it.
We spent in Mexico this day. We arrived by car to the capital city with
a worldwide reputation. We walked in the town to enjoy fully its beauty.
I was surprised by several things in Mexico. I never heard anything like
this before that day. A cactus is most popular vegetable after potatoes
Mexico. Sell it in stores by weight to 17 pesos per kilo (9 pesos is $
1). People here eat cactus buds too, that appear on the plant after flowering.
Their taste resembles apples, but they have small seeds like in the kiwi.
The hotel we were served grilled cactus with minced meat and bean sauce,
which were wrapped in Mexican pancakes. They are called tortillas. I was
surprised by one more fact: Mexicans do not like entire beans, so each
woman has a special mortar to grind beans. When we walked I was just amazed streets of Mexico City. There are a lot of beautiful houses, office buildings, parks in the city. Roads are very busy and noisy. Drivers bound practically the rules of the road. But I must say that the owners of the cars are very polite. By the way, mexico city hotel car rental is a wonderful and needed service. And you should know that the rented cars have a distinctive color of the numbers, so they are visible on the streets. That is, if you do not want your travel would turn into problems with the police, then you have to follow carefully the rules of the road. I’ll tell you more about one more interesting facts of our travel. It is vendors of boiled corn. Imagine the following scene: riding a bike a nice guy, and he has a boiling cauldron. Golden ears are cooked in cauldron. And the coals of fire are under the boiler. And it is moving, buzzing and hissing... When a buyer come, seller draws deftly corn ear from the boiler, skewer it on wand, and you get a steaming food like Popsicle. Then he smears ear with ketchup, a thick layer of mayonnaise and gives you. And you are eating this yummy and closing your eyes with pleasure. In the evening the barrow boys on bicycles carry ice cream, homemade bread, all other meals. And you are tired coming back from job, sitting in a chair near the house, turning on the music and waiting when someone pass by with a ready meal, beer or cola... |
