another trivia-tich

bueno hello amigos,
been a while, but have i got a juicy nugget for you. so a lot of the buses here are called camions, which i have deduced usually indicates a smaller size. i am pretty sure that the busdrivers who use these can pimp out their own vehicles because they are full of cool stuff. here is a glimpse into three different bus/camions. this might take a sec because there is some challenging trivia at the end. the first person to respond with the correct answer and a citation of source material will receive a special treat when i get home.
miss you all

ps is the -tich suffix getting old?

camion 1

1. Ratin Lover. if you can't see it, the sticker has mickey mouse on it. Raton means mouse in Spanish. I'll let you do the rest of the sleuthing.

camion 2

2. Opium Den. This bus has an oversize red cushion right next to the driver that people were sitting on and then chatting with the bus driver. I think they probably knew him. I was jealous, obviously.

camion 3

3. The Good Life. This was a bus the school rented to take all the foreigners for a group meeting at immigration. Oh Joy! This bus driver had a nicer, bigger bus and if you look closely, I think the bus' name is Mayra. I think that is my favorite Spanish name. And also, yes, look closely, but cover your eyes vegetarians, that is an honest to goodness animal hoof. And not just the hoof, it's the whole darn foot from ankle down!! (Trivia: Do hooved animals have ankles?)

zoom zoom

i borrowed a friends camera today with a boom zoom and boy was it nice to snoop! check out this lovely domestic scene but watch out for the hand!!! ooohhh!

trash-tich

Well folks, in case you are in the dumps about the state of the river here, I have some good news. i have turned into a PI whose mission is to locate just where that river starts and get some photos(and a whiff) of the pure, clean source stream. I didn't complete my mission today, but I did get closer, not to mention finding the best blue corn gorditas a PI could ask for. this tryptich has a happy, not so trashy ending, so feast your eyes and your nose. And no, I didn't get a picture of the gorditas b/c I am in tourist-denial right now and I don't take pictures of my food (though i sorely regret it and i think i will return to snap some shots of the whole scene on another day).

The River

Lest ye think all in Gto. is pristine beauty...viva la odor!
