Today we woke up early and went into Ojuelos. We went to the entrance of the town at about 8:50 AM to catch the 9 AM bus, which cost 30 pesos. In Ojuelos we got food (quesadillas with salsa and eggs for me and a quesadilla with meat and some chips for Steve). It cost us about $2 each to eat.
We tried several times going to the internet cafe. I think there are three in Ojuelos. We knew only where two were (we had to ask around). One wasn't open (and from when we asked last, their internet seemed to be broken). One was open but very busy, so it was difficult to get a spot on a computer. We finally got a spot at about 12 (a couple of hours after we arrived). We were able to send a couple of emails and research a couple of things, like the recipe for ORS (oral rehydration solution). Having internet after not having it for a few days felt amazing.
At the end of our Ojuelos trip, we bought a Telcel phone, which is supposed to get much better service here than the Movistar sim card that was in my phone from home.
When we got back, Elena found us and lead us to a party that was going on for the wedding. We met some new people and ate food before going back to the Reyes house. Later we went to the sort of afterparty (reception?), where there was a mix of Mexican wedding traditions and dancing and modern dancing and music.
One of the dances people do is one in which everyone holds hands and dances in a circle around the bride and groom.
