Hey everyone! Today, we went to Tijuana, Mexico! It was awesome! I don't think I mentioned it, but 3 days ago, I lost my retainer in a restaurant. So, as soon as we got off the train, we went to a dentist and got a new retainer made in just one hour! It was so fast and it's really good. One of the weirdest things about Tijuana though, is that they have soooo many dentists and pharmacies. Anyway after we got the retainer, we went for a walk to downtown Tijuana to have a look around some of the shops. There are people everywhere trying to sell you things when you walk down the street. The people walk up to you and are all like "Hey, why don't you look around the shop, you'll see something you like, I can give you a special price", and some of them actually follow you for a while before they leave you alone. But it's all good because it's such a friendly place, well, where we were at least :P
We went in a couple of shops and there was one really nice guy who recognized us everytime we walked past, so we had a look at the jewellry shop he owned, and we got a bracelet each. Later, we went to KFC for lunch, because I don't like Mexican food, and my mum and I got different burgers. The burgers were both supposed to be chicken, but mum is convinced that hers was rabbit or something :P
When we were walking back to the train station, we had to walk down this street that was under heavy construction. The workers were building a road, and the local people would just walk across the site and in front of tractors. It was crazy, but we just followed the crowd (:
Well, that was pretty much it; Tijuana was so much fun. And the coolest thing was that we actually walked across the border! Haha it was cool. Anyways, I'll keep you guys posted (:
Catcha later (:
