To my friends who took accidentally drove into Tijuana
Mexico. It's an interesting place. I can't say much about it because I've only been there a few times and only for a few hours each time. My first visit I was bombarded by everyone trying to sell me their products. I don't like to make decisions fast, so this situation didn't work out well for me and I ended up buying a set of jewelry which I never wear. My second visit...I walked into a shop and the owner stuck out his hand, and me being the friendly person that I am, thought that he wanted a high-five so I slapped his hand. He gave me a very weird look and I left the shop quickly. Today at church I was reminded of this story when Scott stuck out his hand and I slapped it, and he said are we in mexico again?? Scott on the other hand, took the wrong exit, and accidentally drove his family, in the rental convertable, into downtown Tijuana. So props to everyone out there who has had to deal with cultural mistakes! Am I alone on these cultural mistakes??
