Pictures from Mexico!


Zacatecas, Mexico was beautiful. My friend Heidi and I spent the last two weeks here, making a documentary for Operation Mobilization.















My girls. Love them.













This is Victor -- awesome guy from LA. Hopefully, one of my new best friends since I am moving there in ONE MONTH! AHHH!!!
















Esteban -- one of the guys we followed for the documentary. Destined to be a world leader!

















He's teaching David (American) how to make balloon animals. Like I said...world leader!

















This guy sings like an angel (I'm sure there are angels that can rock like Bono) and I got a personal concert in the back of a Mexican taxi along with six friends (yes, all in a taxi the size of a geo metro).















The Palabre de Vida team with some kids from the neighborhood.










Heidi and Obed in the back of Obed's truck. It was in this truck that I was first introduced to Vico C, a Puerto Rican Christian rapper that I now have come to love.









I was actually on the Doulos with this guy, Jonathan. Since then he has gotten (oh yeah, I said gotten) himself a wife and the most beautiful daughter named Shihe.
















Dylan and Ami. Clown and mime. We followed Dylan as part of the documentary, the poor guy had everything go wrong for him -- he got sick, he didn't have a translator half the time and he missed home. He was a good sport though (made for a great movie too:)!







Daniel.
20.
Funny.
Looking for an American girl.









A clothes line...OK, I thought it looked cool.












This is Isai. I held a sort of succesful conversation in Espanol with this guy for THREE HOURS!!! We talked about our favorite movies and music and I only said "No comprendo"...um, fifteen times!















Cute kids! Don't know them.












Pretty door. Don't know who's it is.












Climbed it! All 365 steps.












This picture of Mary was part of a Catholic celebration that took place in the streets in front of someone's home. They had food and dancing and the entire neighborhood showed up.









Esteban, Julia and David doing door to door.












My team.












Obed. One of my favorite Mexicans. This guy took us everywhere we needed to go and gave us a tour of his city. Good times!










There were literally cows walking in the street!












Also a great singer, usually sings without the clown get up.











Pachuka, Mexico.












Open air. Daniel and Susan.
