Go West Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 We did our part and got take out from our favorite local restaurant. Had some tequila and Mexican beer to help wash it down. An enjoyable time at home since we couldn't eat and drink out. Is anybody else getting a bit restless? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 I saw a school bus this morning but no police car at the high school. More traffic, a bmw that couldn’t stay in its lane, couple other rule breakers, a young person in the seniors only line. yes more activity.

Capt. James H. Callahan Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 Had to work so no big deal for me. An interesting (hopefully) tale. The Hispanics around these parts have one h*lluva party on May 5. We were once staying in Playa del Carmen Mexico on May 5, we were all excited, figured there was gonna be a fiesta grande! Most people we talked to didn't even know what we were talking about. Our cab driver said "I think they do something in Puebla." What a bust.

Alpo Posted May 6, 2020 Share Posted May 6, 2020 I saw on our local plague website that parents no longer needed to bring the children to pick up the free meals. Just proof that you actually had the children. School ID card, birth certificate, like that. And it said you pick the meals up "at the site or at the bus stop". That kinda sorta sounds like the bus drivers are delivering the free breakfast and lunch. 41 minutes ago, Marshal Mo Hare, SASS #45984 said: I saw a school bus this morning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JHC We went into Nogales, Mexico on May 5 quite a few years back when my wife's late folks lived in Green Valley, Az. There was a huge celebration; schools were closed, big parades with groups of those great synchronized horsemen, etc. It was a blast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JHC September 16th is Mexico’s Independence Day and celebrated much more than May 5th, which is a bigger deal in the US than Mexico. Mostly for bars and restaurants.
