Nochixtlan

Continuing to telling about my trips and new experiences, trying new things, I will move with retelling what happened in the August.

We with Mariana, while rest of the team went to International Congress, decided to go to Oaxaca state, to visit her friend. We went 3 of us - Mariana, me and David. Mariana´s friend, who´s name is Elizabeth (Eli) live in small town called Nochixtlan, what is 6 hours from Mexico city.
We arrived there at 6am, in the beginning eat different tasty things and then went a bit to sleep.

First of all we went for a walk around the city. We arrived in this dates also because city had big celebrations and city was making many nice activities inside. Already from the first minutes I was feeling very good, because I was outside of Mexico city, where is hard to relax, but here was silent, not in rush and also people was excited about coming celebrations.

After half an hour we finish to watch the city :) and we can hope just to relax. I was first time in my life sleeping in the hamak of course with my iPod :)




Then during the day started carnival. It was big one, dance groups came here from all Oaxaca state and atmosphere around was just amazing.

















This day was special for the city and for this people was allow to drink alcohol on the street. So we also wanted to enjoy this opportunity :D and we created our own cocktails from Rum Malibu and second from Tequila.




In the night was happening second part of carnival, where some people from carnival was going to special houses to eat and drink. In the front of everyone was going city council (at photo in the middle in a blue shirt). When they were entering house where we were waiting for them, started to rain and a bit later it was really strong rain. Funny was that city is based on the hill, so when we were going to home under the rain, you feel that you are going through river, because water has flow :) So finally we got completely wet.


We returned to house and Eli´s family gave us clothes to change and we were waiting for rain to finish and also for 4 am, to go to dance. 4 am, because till this party disco was asking entrance fee and we didn´t want to pay it :) We went to dance salsa and then to sleep, because in the morning at 9am we wanted go to Oaxaca and Monte Alban to watch this famous places.

So finally we managed to leave city at 12 pm and arrive to Oaxaca at 2pm and from this place we left directly to Monte Alban to watch pyramids.
