i have been in mexico since sunday and decided to bring only $25 down across the border. you could say i have really no desire to spend the money, but seriously i knew that i would spend it all on food (seriously..who wouldn't?).
anyways, monday and tuesday came and went and i stayed mostly up in the condo or down by the pool. never did i see the helado man until i walked up to the condo for the day on tuesday and look down over the balcony to see several people from the family eating coconut popsicles. ummm hello...you don't even have to ask if i was jealous. that was a given. i was sooo jealous that i decided to conjure up a plan.
i had decided that the next day i would take my whole $25 and buy out all of the coconut helados before anyone else in the family could. yes, i am selfish. haha. i was up all morning with the binoculars out trying to scope out the target (aka helado). it was just my luck when the family decided they wanted to go into town to shop. i could of stayed at the condo by myself, but i decided to go even though i knew i wouldn't be spending money.
eventually we drove back to the condo where i hurried up the elevator, peered over the balcony to see TWO helado men. luckily i had my money and my bag so i grabbed my brothers and RAN with all of the out-of-shapeness i had to get down to the beach. we sprinted to the first helado man..no more coconut popsicles. we then proceeded to sprint in the opposite direction for like a mile to the other helado man (yes my body hurt REALLY BAD). anyways, we made it to the second guy and guess how many popsicles he has...ONE. i was so angry. i wanted 25 popsicles gosh darn!
you bet your bottom dollar i ate that popsicle. and yes, i did share. but because i had done so much work to get it, it just didn't taste the same ;) i will never ever ever run to get another coconut popsicle again. it's way too much work. haha!
happy spring break!!
adios!
