Have I got a post for you...(read to bottom)

So naturally, today was Sunday. We had been informed our church was at 10 but when we arrived we were basically turned away... Have you ever been turned away from church? Me neither... BUT the man was very stubborn about us not going to his ward. He then informed us if we came back an hour 11 we could attend that ward, but not his. The church is about a half hour away from our apartment so we decided to just walk around a nearby park until 11. We then show up at 11 and the same guy tell us we still can't come in until 12. So we're about to go inactive, until one of the ladies from the ward at 12 saved us. And by saved us I mean recruited us to the ward choir. Which I may have preferred going inactive. But in the end it was good because before we came there were probably 6 people in the choir, 4 of which were tone deaf. So yea apparently we are singing a song in church next week for mothers day, in a language we can't even understand (Did I mention it has to be memorized?) Other then that church was spiritual, I think. I mean I heard the word "espiritu" at least 20 times. After that we decided to explore some more of the city. We're kinda at a lose of what to do. They dropped us off at the apartment a couple days ago and pretty much abandoned us. For all they know we literally could have no food in our apartment. Luckily we had some gourmet waffle mix leftover from the previous girls. Also some plain tomato sauce and pasta, saltines, and tortillas. Can you imagine the amazing and creative combinations we came up with? Anyways other then feeling abandoned its been a pretty interesting day. 
That awkward moment when the sky is prettier then you.

This sky though, and this one is not edited ^
The mexican sky does it once again, I promise my fetish with the sky is not serious

Now enjoy some more random pictures i took of the city (I promise this post will get more interesting):



HERE'S Where things get more interesting. SO I'm walking down the street taking a billion pictures. And a police truck comes down the road and it looks like they are hunting zombies. They all got their guns, and there's at least four standing in the back of the truck lookin pretty tough. This is where being a white girl comes in handy, they all get soft and start cat calling and waving. So we're off the hook right? No. El Policia stop and start walking towards us. Like many of the other Mexicans, he just starts going off in Spanish and we just stare (like usual.) "No habla Espanol," was my weak attempt at getting him to go away, but I guess letting him know we don't understand a thing didn't get the point across. He continued to talk rapidly for 2 minutes then shook our hands and left. Uhhh ok.

Then we entered central city .... And I think you should watch this video before I try to explain what happened there. I'm still struggling to understand:

Actually Apparently the video isnt gonna work right now, but I WILL Eventually force it to post. In the meanwhile here is a picture and a description to give you a little sneak peak.


So there was some sort of clown show going on it town, some wacky stuff was happening. Pictured above is a man dressed as a ridiculous curvaceous woman. The show consisted of thing unable to be explained by man. BUT of course being the only white people ever, we were automatically picked out of the crown by this character. He started showing off a little English, and insisted we take a "selfie" with his clown buddy in front of everyone (about 200+)

And here's the result. So yea! Pretty eventful evening, now I gotta go some lessons plan for school this week
