The shrimp cocktail (see recipe) was good. That is what everybody said (maybe they were just being polite, you can never tell). I liked it. It was really improved by Brigid's guacamole, and our Mexican beer with lime juice and salt.
Moni told me to put all the sauces on the shrimp: the ketchup, the cilantro and lemon sauce, and the valentina hot sauce. Did I say it was delicious?
I learnt some English new words: cilantro (I thought the right word was "coriander" but apparently coriander is a different spice) and screen door (in Mexico we call that a "mosquitero", which literally means "mosquito net"). I wrote in a previous post the word "mosquitoe net". I meant screen door. I cannot edit that from my Blackberry. I will, though.
A funny story:
Our friends were by the pool, and their room door was open. Suddenly an elderly Mexican man walked by. He went into their room, he used their bathroom and then left. They could only look at each other in wonder. They could have called the police or at least the lobby receptionist, but they found the story was funny and did nothing.
"The worst thing was", Brigid said jokingly, "he didn't even wash his hands!"
