Well I must say, if you want to truly enjoy a hamburger, try experiencing an attempted armed robbery in Mexico beforehand! You will really enjoy the flavor of grease and avocado! Oy vey. Well the trip to Mexico has truly been lovely, and I will post some photos soon, but tonight we were a bit shaken up when we were approached by two men while walking to the gay bar on the main avenue in Acapulco. It was very strange. First I noticed the man in the back pull a gun out and very dramatically cock the weapon. Then he asked us (in Spanish) to give us everything. But Nolverto -- my Mexican friend -- loudly said "No!" and kept walking, which confused them. They were very young and clearly not very experienced at this, so we were able to keep walking. I froze very briefly and one of the guys grabbed my wrist -- but very lightly, not violently. I was able to pull away and we ran a block before quickly entering a bar. Ay dios mia! What a night! Time for bed. Will post more soon!
