Some things are just worth it...

I had just woken up from a deep, deep, two hour nap. I had spent the whole day in Tepotz. and was exhausted. I was groggy, sleepy, and sweaty. I walked over to Kyle´s house and Delia asked me if I wanted to go swimming. Well, of course!!! Oh, but I do not have any money, she says...can you pitch in for gas? Yes, I can, but I wish we could split it, I thought to myself...ni modo...anways, ten minutes later we were on the road and four dollas of gas later, at the same freshwater spring I went to yesterday! There was absolutely no one there, the sun was setting, and the water was perfect!
As we were leaving, Delia offered to give a ride home to one of the owner´s of the spring. Lucky for us, he acceped, and I got to see the pueblo of Emilio Zapata, famous for its haciendas! And the haciendas still exist!!! They are falling apart, but are there! In need of restoration too, I might say, but are beautiful and took me back in time a bit. Speking of back in time, this owner of the spring´s father was a general of one of the hacienda´s way back when and he, the owne, still lives in a quaint little room, or oficina, of one! The walls were litraly falling apart, but nevertheless, told a story, many stories indeed, and I have ganas, as you would say here, to return and spend lots,and I mean LOTS of time with this man. He knows a TON and has the potential to open up my reality about the history of this state! Exciting!!!
So, yes four bucks was a pain in the butt for a five minutecar ride, but relatively, and in the end, totally worth it!!!

Pictures to come soon!
