Buenos dias amigos, buenos dias (Good morning friends, good morning).
We just got finished at 7-eleven we're starting up
our day with two coffees. Jordan is getting a doughnut, and we got two big
bottles of water. Just 66 pesos. And we are gearing up the day for a tour.
Specifically a Tapatio tour. We're going to be on a double-decker bus. I'm going
to try not to butcher this. We're going to Tonalá, Tlaquepaque, and Zapopan.
And Guadalajara. Well we're in Guadalajara but we're also going to be touring around
the downtown area. Hopefully, we can do a good job showing you the awesome things
that this city and the surrounding cities have to offer. We are excited or
We can explore the city a lot more than we've been able to on foot. No, no, the tour's not on foot.
We have been exploring on foot. The tour is en autobus (in a bus).
We are here on the first stop of our tour in Tonalá.
There's tons of vendors, street food, lots of artesenias.
Food, drinks, coconuts, cooking products, everything, anything. So let's explore!
What you get? Whatch I get? I got a street taco that's made with frijoles (beans) and
Papas (potatoes) for 6 pesos, and they all laughed at me because I thought she
said chicharos which are peas, and she said chicharron which is pork rind, and
I'm not allergic to pork rind, I'm allergic to peas. They got a good laugh out of that. Okay, I don't know how to do this.
AHHH. I'm not sure you're doing it right. I'm not doing it right. [Laughter]
Bring on the mess. Hope you can find
napkins somewhere, oh you have one right there. Oh. I was like "I hope so too!"
Not as good as cooler taco, cooler taco guy right
outside of PV, but really good!
Back on the bus! To Tlaquepaque! Tlaquepaque, it's gotta be one of the most fun cities to say.
Tlaque Tlaque TlaqueTlaqueTlaquepaqueHEY!
Here we are in Tlaquepaque, one of the most recommended places in Facebook
groups and friends. So we just made it to El Centro, we have this nice gazebo. We feel
like that's how we know wherever the Centro is, they have like a giant gazebo
looking thing.
I am in el centro del centro. (The center of the center)
El centro del centro. (The center of the center)
I wanna be in el centro del centro.
No I am. [Laughter]
Hi, I'm a bird!
And the keep going and going and going. Oh look! There's more!
We're trying this shooter called "Buenos dias"
And it has, It's tart, sweet, and sort of has a chili salt to it. I think this is
kind of like worm salt, but with sugar. And then at the bottom here is a, what
translates directly as "peach round." It looks like a grape. The shot is
pretty sweet. Jordan's scared but it's really good, it doesn't taste
overwhelmingly like tequila, damn it! Alright, we're down to the peach round.
So, it's filled with liquid with a thin layer around it, and then it just like explodes in
your mouth, and I'm pretty sure that's straight tequila inside. What!? What is it?
What are you? I'm about to do it. That was really surprising! Even though I
knew it was gonna happen. It doesn't taste like there's tequila inside there to me.
It was just like juice, like peach juice. It was strong for me!
I got the lasagna and this stuff is so amazing! You have these little balls
filled with passionfruit. And a flower that you're supposed to eat. This is interesting, this is the best.
It's Parmesan cheese, and the rest of the lasagna's amazing! It's so good!
It's Tlaquealpaque (Tlaquepaque & Alpaca pun) alpaque.
I'd like to order a small cup. Of corn? Yes. Tajin and lime? Or cream and cheese?
Cream and cheese, and a little bit of tajin?
Yes, that's fine. Is it 15 pesos?
What's the result? Okay here we go. This is cream, cheese, and Tajin on top.
I hope it isn't spicy. Oh my gosh! Best ever!
15 pesos.
Here we are, back on the bus. We are going back to Guadalajara!
Here we are, back in Guadalajara. The roundabout something or other.
Sitting in the grass, waiting to go to Zapopan.
While we were here in Guadalajara in El Centro, I really wanted some pan de elote (corn bread).
Like the 12 peso one that I got this morning.
[Bus driver starts talking in Spanish over the loudspeaker]
But, the corntel (corn / cartel pun) is jacking up all the prices.
Here it's 20. There were like 6 people selling them for 20 pesos.
They're not going to get your pun if you don't tell them it's corn bread.
It's cornbread. It's pan de elote, I said.
Yeah, but you didn't say what elote means. It's cornbread. [Laughter]
[Rewind sound]
The corntel is jacking up all the prices. And now, we are going to another fun place to say. Zapopan.
Zapopan.
So after some confusion because we were the only people got off the bus. The
driver clarified that yes we're in Zapopan. Not "Zapopan" We led you astray.
Zapopan. Our mistake. I made a mistake. I don't think it's as fun to say anymore. It kind of isn't. Zapopan.
So here we are at the gazebo, which means El Centro. Someone's going to tell us this is not a gazebo. It looks like a
gazebo. What do you call this? I'm sure they'll tell us.
Yeah, yeah, correct us if we're wrong, but it looks like a gazebo to me. [Laughter]
El centro del centro [Laughter]
Oh, it's kind of echoey. And we've got this beautiful church over here.
[Kids screaming and playing]
And I'm pretty sure there's some stuff to explore. I saw food, so we're going to do it to it.
Compared to the buildings we've seen in Amsterdam or in Lisbon, Portugal
they held very similar to this, but those are from the 1,500s 1,600s 1,700s. This is from
1960, weird. Trickery I say, trickery!
So we regret to say that our feet are tired, we need a nap, and we're pretty
dehydrated. So Zapopon was great. At least what we saw of El Centro anyway.
And we're heading back to Guadalajara.
So just to recap the day, we had a ton of
fun in the Tapatio tour. We went to Tonalá, Tlaquepaque, back to Guadalajara,
and then to Zapopan. Hopefully, we just said all of those
right. Every piece of food that we put in our mouths today was so good! I want to
redo the whole day again. Basically, we paid 150 pesos for
this Tapatio Tour. Also, hopefully I'm saying that right. And it took us
around to these cities on a double-decker bus. I think it would have
costed more to just go to Tlaquepaque via Uber there and back than the whole tour
cost. That was pretty cool. We got to try a bunch of new things. So many people
recommended these surrounding cities, so we got a really good taste of what this
whole area is like. Yeah, it was super awesome, definitely worth the money. If
you're a student, if you're a senior, you can get it for a hundred. Laska you didn't get
to go on the tour with us. It said no mascotas (no pets) No se permite mascotas (pets are not allowed).
Laska, come here. No one wants to see your butthole, come here!
