Sunday - Part One

Sundays in Mexico are quiet relaxing! The streets seem empty because everyone is on their way to the beach. Sundays are family days. We decided to go to one of my favourite beaches at Puerto Adventuras Sunday morning. I knew this would involve our breakfast at a popular, roadside taco stand, on the highway before our exit to the beach! Here is Alfredo, with a big smile, waiting to give our taco filling requests. It is 11AM, Sunday, August 30th.


Here is our outdoor table and in front, a fresh juice stand.



I had three tacos and freshly squeezed orange juice. My first taco was a cream sauce and peppers. The second taco was chicken and the third rice. The best part of the chicken and rice taco was that the sauce was mole (mow-lay). I love mole. It takes forever to make and is a combination of lots of peppers and chocolate. It is somewhat sweet, but the peppers give a taste like nothing else! Check out Sunday-Part Two (below)!

Wow!!! Yes I could feel the warm breeze and taste the tacos....peppers and chocolate seem like an odd combination but I would be willing to try one out.....what happened to your old faithful...oatmeal for breakfast??
Thanks for sharing your story with me.
