Oaxaca, Mexico; Day 6

Today we ate breakfast in the hotel, which was bread and fruit and fresh squeezed orange juice, and eggs with potatoes. We went to Monte Alban ruins. This is where Nacho Libre is filmed at the end of the movie. In fact Oaxaca is where the movie is filmed in totality pretty much. Anyway, it was kinda weird because it was really grassy at Monte Alban and in the movie its really dry. It was neat though! We got lots of good pics.
After Monte Alban we went to the temple for a while. We ate lunch, a sample platter of a bunch of different foods. It was yummy. We all went down to the Zocalo for the night. It was really nice to have so much free time when we were cramped in the bus the day before. We had the freedom to walk around in the market -- which was a lot of fun. They sold everything! Food, clothes, handmade things, even american imported items.
I bought a fan for Rachel because she collects them and a cool blanket. Im satisfied!
