Happy Cinco de Mayo

OK, before we start on the photo let's get the whole Cinco de Mayo thing straight. Cinco de Mayo is not Mexican Independence Day. It is a celebration of the battle of Puebla where the Mexicans defeated the French, at least for awhile. Anyway, amaze and impress your freinds by telling them this and you will be considered quite a historian, or they will think that you watched the History Channel last night. Now for the photo - it is an image of the restrooms at the hacienda near Chichen Itza. Today it is far from a hacienda, it is large bus magnent. At any given time there are tourists swarming over it waiting to get their buffet lunch and watch quaint Maya women dance with beer trays on their heads, yeah that's right round beer tray's. The food is good and the place is "nice" in a tourist sort of way.

So go to McDonald's today and have a Cinco de Mayo happy meal, and be sure to get your little plastic General Zaragoza figurine so that he can kick your Napoleon III figurine's plastic butt.

Thanks for your support...
