Vamos Toros...Lets go Bulls!

On Friday, we went out to a baseball game with the Engineering team from Eric's work. We went and saw the white and red Toros play. The Toros are a local baseball team in Tijuana, and they are pretty popular.

Everyone was so nice. It was great to be able to socialize and get to know the people that Eric works with everyday. They all brought their families. I always think it is best to experience a culture with the locals; it makes the experience so much better!

We ended up doing a barbecue at the game. Julio, below with Eric, taught him how to Mexican BBQ.


 The guys were having a little too much fun at that grill!
Even BBQ revolves around tacos! They BBQ the beef, make quesadillas on the grill, then you make your own taco with the meat. You add salsa and guacamole to finish it off.

I tried a fruit bowl that they sell. It had this chili powder on it that I mentioned in an earlier blog. Well, the powder is okay....don't think I'll have it again. I think fruit is already good by itself, but I finally tried it.

Eric and one of the other guys (I never learned his name!) got on TV. There was a news cast going around asking how people were enjoying the game and they interviewed them. The reporter's eyes opened really wide when Eric just started speaking in Spanish on camera. It was pretty funny to watch.
