>> People said as soon as you crossed the border, you could
>> automatically tell you were in Mexico. I thought this was a bit
>> exagerrated, but it was completely true. The closer we got to the
>> border the less fast food restaurants, gas stations, and shopping
>> centers we saw. And when we crossed over, the landscape completely
>> changed, there was trash everywhere and it was very barren.
>> It was so sad to see houses that were the size of my room. And it
>> was a shock to see where we were staying. But we all adjusted
>> quickly. As soon as we got there the girls in the youth group
>> started playing with a bunch of little mexican girls. We played a
>> game where we all held
>> hands and danced around in a circle and sang a song and once the
>> song was over the person in the middle had to to tag someone. It
>> was such a cool exprience to get to play with the mexican children
>> right away. It was so much fun. It was so cool to see how mexican
>> children and american children laugh and play in the same way. It
>> was also so cool to know or languages didn't keep us from playing
>> together and understanding each other. I'm excites to see what the
>> other days in mexico have in store.
