Naturally there was a lot of buzz about the big game yesterday in the tourist zone. We couldn't get the game streamed on our laptop, but the rest of our building either cheered or groaned when something happened. So I guess the pretty red birds were whacked by the big steel guys??
But the real BIG event (El Suceso Grande!) was an hour ago, next door. There is a concrete block wall and iguanas are squatting in all the hollow sections of the blocks. So this morning all the international media set up their satellite trucks and HD cameras to record Groundhoguana Day. Quite a scene as the Mexican news anchors with their short skirts and plastic everythings (and that's just the men!) shoved each other to get the best look. We had a good vantage spot from our second floor balcony.
No question about it --- definite shadows! Thing is, groundhoguanas LIKE their shadow and did not run back into hiding. So, six more weeks of this terrible sunny weather...
