One thing I LOVE about Mexico is that they have their own cultural identity. For example, mariachi bands. You hear the music, you automatically think MEXICO! The other night we went to a 15-year-old's birthday party, and while we were eating we all of a sudden heard the trumpet blast and everyone started yelling and cheering. It was so fun.
As we drove home we passed what we call the "Avenue de los Mariachis" (not it's real name, but that's what we call it). If you need a mariachi band any night of the week, you just go there and pick one out and hire them. It's a bit funny to see all the men standing around with their instruments dressed in their outfits. You expect a party to break out at any moment!
I love this commercial, they always show it in movie theaters before the previews. I hope you enjoy your Mexico Monday!
