Anyways, my second day took me to hacienda Kuau, a very beautiful and relaxing old hacienda that has been renovated to accommodate parties. We went there because the owner wanted to buy ad space in the magazine. They told me that sales visits usually take about 10 to 30 minutes. After touring the hacienda and waiting for about an hour, i was starting to doubt that. We finally left about 2 1/2 hours later. My boss kept apologizing for how long it took, but i really didn't mind spending my whole day relaxing at a hacienda.
After returning an hour late for lunch, I hung around the house for about an hour and then went to the photoshoot for la portada (the cover) of the magazine. I really enjoyed watching the whole process and helping out, but this project too took several hours!
Finally I returned home for a short dinner, ate some rosco (a type of cake) to celebrate the day of the three kings and we went out for the first time since arriving.
My Lesson of the Day: When your on Mexican time, some things just seem to take longer
