But seriously this place Mulege is lame. First I must clarify. I thought that it was going to be another quaint seaside village full of old pueblo mission buildings, palm trees, and dudes selling fresh fruit and moncheca everywhere, so my expectations were high. HOWEVER they were dashed.
Again let me explain-What's cool about Mexico IS THE MEXICAN STUFF!!! The food. The architecture. The Missions. Learning the language. The panderias. The locals etc. What's NOT cool is Americans building what are clearly American track homes in little villages and putting security systems in and surrounding everything with barbwire. That is just plain tasteless and soooooooooooooooooo Caucasian. Well Mulege is full of these types unfortunately. All the waterfront properties have been bought up and bastardized by white people showin their money off. LAME. I mean if you wanna have a house in Mexico and live there that's totally cool but can it please not look like the IRVINE CA homebuilders expo. Seriously people.
I did however meet a wonderful local lady who made me coffee con leche y sucar this morning. She was rad.
She made empanadas as well
To me the cool thing about traveling is the locals and their whole vibe NOT white people building little fiefdoms in foreign countries.
That's just ridiculous.
