Wednesday at Las Cruces

In Las Cruces, we visited a church, which was a small one, but really nice looking. It was located just outside the town, in a county called Mesilla. We ate at a restaurant, just before going to a fair. That fair was full of some amazing things, ones that are rarely seen in my city.

Tractors were all around. So were animals. Well, there were many animals, such as cows, chickens, pigs, rabbits, goats, zebras or even camels, but they were in corrals. Also, there was a speedway. 

When we got back to Juárez, we went to get our permits, because the next day we were going to Carlsbad, New Mexico. Personally, I thought it was going to be a really long process, because there were 22 of us, plus the teachers. Then we saw something I hadn't seen before. There were two Mexican women trying to get a permit. One of them was old. She was crying and begging the officer to give her a permit, but he refused. I don't really know why, but it was hard to see and hear her. I really hope she got the permit. She looked so sad and desperate. That made me think that it wouldn't be easy to get us a permit. But luckily, it was. So, as we got the permit, we went back home.
