I'm Gio, I'm from Mexico, Guadalajara to be more accurate, but lived most of the time by the pacific coast area; I was a teacher in that area then I came to vacations to california visiting my sister and now it's been almost 10 yrs living here, but still miss mexico, and planing to go back to stay. You're so totally right about tv news in here that's why I decided to not watch tv, almost 5 yrs ago, now I only surf the web and read blogs,.. that's how I found this good one. congratulations ;).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2289482511228853984.post-72713511263152869722010-08-13T18:09:19.282-05:002010-08-13T18:09:19.282-05:00Damned blogger comments are making me type this po...Damned blogger comments are making me type this post just so I can subscribe to the comments!

I don't know whether you ever read about this story, of Mexican officials getting mighty hot under the collar a couple of years back when a Big Brother show in Australia made a bit of a boo boo with the Mexican flag. They really do take it very seriously!<br /><br />http://today.msnbc.msn.com/id/19371563Gary Dennesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16121466795073130174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2289482511228853984.post-38352065109691499792010-08-13T14:07:41.281-05:002010-08-13T14:07:41.281-05:00Nita -- There are several monumental Mexican flags...Nita -- There are several monumental Mexican flags -- including one at Ensenada.

I tried to get a photo of it but there was no way to get it all in with my camera. I loved being there several times.
