Things I Have Learned from 24 Hours in La Ciudad de Mexico:

[in Chronological Order]

1) Never bring more suitcases than you have hands (or in my case--my guitar. Getting from the luggage conveyor to the exit doors took me three times as long as it should have)

2) I am a terrible driver (The streets in Mexico City don't even have lines. How my Grandfather avoided an accident, I will never know)

3) When eating in Mexico, eat as the Mexicans do. Some things aren't intended to be eaten with a fork. There is such a thing as being overly polite.

4) Listen closely when Mexicans tell you their names. It may sound like it just blends into the rest of the palabras, but it is very separate.

5) If you pray in English in front of Mexicans, watch out for the squeal afterwards.

6) Always wear shoes. If you come to scripture study sin sus zapatos, you will be scolded.

7) Hot Dogs are NOT for Breakfast. (I personally don't agree with Hot Dog consumption at anytime, but if you eat one for breakfast, it will come back to bite you)

8) The Spirit speaks in Every Language.

9) Two Mexican Men trying to speak English are more difficult to understand than One speaking Spanish

10) When looking for someone who speak English look above the heads of the rest. The tallest is the most helpful.

11) If a girl or a boy sticks out their cheek towards you, kiss it. Or at least make a kissy noise and touch their face with your face.

[P.S. Everywhere I look there are novios y novias--I would not survive in this culture. I am too afraid of cooties]

Join Us At Our Blog

Also this is Tigan Blogging for the Fawcett family. You might have guessed due to the poor punctuation or bad spelling that this is not Keri. My mom, though a women of many talents she is NOT a blogger and upon visiting the Davis Blog I realized there is a serious lack of Fawcett representation. Truth be told we have so much to offer and it would be a real shame to let the less fortune members of the gene pool miss out on the GRANDNESS.{wink wink} So I told my mom I would blog for her:)

ENJOY!

Around the World in 80 Shows

This year Layton High School presents...
Around the World in 80 Shows. With a toe tapping review of classics you and I both love...to the little know beauties of the past and present. The singing is great and the acting superb but what really steals the show is one of our very own. Trained by the famous instructor Professor Youtube. Mr Carter Fawcett wows the audience with his killer dance moves as well as his lyrical voice! Who said the Fawcett's can't dance (we are talking moon walk here people). I also believe there has even been talk of stage eye candy? Though it's hard to judge the Fawcetts really are such a handsome lot!!
