When beer's cheaper than water what do you expect?



We arrive four days prior to the beginning of the program, and the time blows by like smoke from a whiskey fire... quite literally. Then it was time for orientation and for us to move from our sweet hotel into our Señora's house, which could have seemed like a bummer if our señora's house wasn't SO nice, or the circumstances of our orientation weren't so good. The entire program, around 30 SMU students and near 60 USD students, were put into a single dormitory in the amazingly historic, and bar-filled, city of TOLEDO. Our obligations were slight, with a few tours of local cathedrals and a couple informational classes, but nothing a good pregame at the pub couldn't liven up...with that many college students compiled in one dormitory for the inception of the program, it seemed the quaint town of Toledo could have been Cabo itself...
