"I don't think we're in Kansas anymore, Toto."

Today after school, I needed to find a grocery store or a Wal-mart of some sort because I wanted to do an art project, called marbling with my class so I needed a few supplies.  I looked up the closest place where I could purchase everything that I needed and it directed me to a Wal-mart a little over a mile away.  Long story short, don't use Google maps.  We ended up in a very bad part of Mexico City and wouldn't you know it...there is no Wal-mart to be found, let alone any other store where I can buy my supplies.

We just seem to keep getting lost in this big ol' city but you know what, I like getting lost.  It's an adventure every time and you also seem to stumble upon something amazing in the end that you may have never seen or done or even tried before.

So we attempt to find our way home and go to another grocery store.  A few hours later we arrive to find out that the store is out of food dye,which is what I need for my project!  So we walk all the way to yet another store.  Luckily this store had some, THANK GOD!  What was suppose to be a quick trip that started at about 3 didn't end to 11.  However, all my supplies were finally in my hands!

Along our travels, we were able to try some Mexican fruit ice cream that was delicious!  We also stumbled upon an awesome bakery and a few bars/restaurants that Alejandro told us that we must try.

Tip for today...take the road less traveled because even though you may have no idea where you are going, you always end up where you're met to be.  :)

Adios!
