Last Saturday night was sooo much fun: I went to a Mexican Independence Day celebration. I haven't been to one of those in quite a few years and boy oh boy have I missed it. They had typical ranchera music, DELICIOUS food brought all the way from Mexico by one of the expats that had just gotten into town, and a grand time was had by all. I have a Mexican coworker who's become my good friend, and as all expats seem to do here in Angola, she knew other Mexicans from other oil companies that are also here on their international assignment. Well, when they decided to organize an official 'grito' celebration, she immediately thought to invite me because I am, after all, an honorary Mexican hahaha. It was so good to hang out, make new friends, sing the songs of my childhood and pig out on awesome quesadillas and authentic salsa (bien picante! YUMMM!). It was one of the best Saturday nights ever :D
The whole crew... give or take a couple...
