The Seminary is having a big promotion event on May 23, and they’ve asked the youth ministry program to do a skit during it.
Here’s what we’re basing our skit on, although we are making some changes so it will fit better with the audience and culture.
Videoblogging Week 2009 finished up last week. I tried to participate as much as I could, and like Steve Garfield says, many videos end up in different places. They don’t all make it to the videoblog because they don’t all fit the Mexico Movies theme.
Some are family videos, and some don’t have anything to do with life in Mexico. Some get posted to Qik and others get posted to Facebook or Vimeo.
For what it’s worth, here are the videos I made for videoblogging week 2009:
Day 1 – Tequila in Mexico (Mexico Movies)
Day 2 – Los Voladores (Mexico Movies)
Day 3 – Tacos al Pastor (Mexico Movies)
Day 4 – Bus Ride in Mexico City (Mexico Movies)
Day 5 – Dancing (via qik)
Day 6 – Nathan’s first time Bowling (Vimeo and Facebook)
Day 7 – Iztapalapa Passion Play (via qik)
Yesterday we took Nathan bowling at the arcade here in Mexico. He and I bowled. He was really good. He even got a strike!

Oh…later in the day we died Easter eggs…
How did you spend your weekend?
As I’ve already written, we went to Xochimilco (pronounced So-Chee-Milk-Oh) last week. I’ve already posted a video of Mariachis there.
Basically, you get on a large, flat, covered boat with your group. There’s a table in the middle where you can eat. You pay to go down the canal, and while you’re on the canal, there are lots of things you can do.
You can stop and go to a restaurant. You can order food from the floating vendors. Or you can pay mariachis to play or listen to marimba music. You can also stop on the side and shop for plants and flowers.
It’s a lot of fun. Check out the video. If you can’t see it in this post, check it out by clicking here.
I made this video back in June of 2006 and posted to our vlog. It’s a mix of Google Earth and video I’ve shot all over Mexico City. Hopefully, it will give you an idea of what Mexico City and our life here is like.
