Travels and Wandering: Mexico Souvenirs

Mexico Souvenirs

I haven't been to Mexico yet but I would love to, someday. A dear friend of mine went for a Caribbean Cruise and she sent me some souvenirs from Mexico.

Ms. Burrito saves the bottles she receives from school with messages inside so she was happy to see another one coming from a close friend. Seeing these bottles all together makes me think of the Genie in a Bottle song by C. Aguilera.

The bottle got damaged, I tried fixing it with super glue but some pieces were missing. I did not toss it but rather hide the damage with a ribbon.

I love the sandal key chain, it's gorgeous! Mr. Burrito love the turtle key chain.

Aside from those keepsakes above, I also got postcards, yay!

Thanks a lot sis Dhemz!
