This morning at 11:30 my roommate and I met some classmates from our Wednesday night class to go an take a tour of Bancomext (the national bank of Mexico). Our professor had told us that we should do this to try and learn about what influences they have on importing and exporting operations in Mexico. So we all took a couple taxis there, and wound up outside a gigantic mall. It wasn't very busy though, and there didn't seem to be a lot of stores in it. I wonder if I just keep going to malls at the wrong time of day, or what, but I've been to 3 multi-level malls that were nearly empty.
We found the bank inside, and all signed in at the front desk. Then we got to the back area, and there were already a bunch of people from out class standing around. I'm not sure what all went on then, but some of the native Spanish speakers talked to the guy behind the desk there, and got some pamphlets for all of us. However, there was evidently no tour (or maybe there is if you call ahead of time, no one really seemed to find out for sure). We left, and a couple of us walked across to eat at Popeye's. I had some fish that was a lot like at Long John Silver's.
This evening I had Chinese food for supper which wasn't real good, and watched some TV with the other residents here.
