This is another long video, but this subject needs a little more time to show. Most people do not associate Mexico with bullfighting, however, the largest bullfighting arena is in Mexico City. Although this bullfight is not during the regular season, and is considered to be a minor league version of a bullfight, it was still super interesting to me and I enjoyed myself thoroughly. I can't wait until I can see another bullfight, hopefully during the regular season in October and November.
Unfortunately, while I was recording the bullfight my main camera ran out of battery and my secondary camera wasn't as good, so I didn't get a lot of usable footage of the bullfighters. It is still an entertaining video to watch, and it is a good representation of one of the treats of Mexico.

The Mexican Sweet Bread - La Concha
This one was not originally intended to be a post to the blog. It is not the short format that I like for video blog postings. However, it is super interesting to see how the Mexican sweet bread, the Concha, is made. Alicia and I were invited by the owner of a panaderia (bakery) to watch (at 5:00a) how Conchas were made. When we got there we were excited to learn that we were actually going to make them ourselves. I couldn't pass up this opportunity to make a little video about our experience there.

Tacos al Pastor
OK, so I am a HUGE fan of Tex-Mex crunchy tacos, but have you ever wondered what a real Mexican taco is like? My favorite is Tacos al Pastor. Watch the video to see what the real deal looks like.
Dori-Loco
What is so crazy about Doritos? Well, you'll see. I discovered this treat from Mexico in the town of Tequisquiapan. You won't believe what goes into one of these thing. Watch the video to find out.
