At least I *think* it was in April 1977

I do remember, however, that it was 1977. The month was most likely April since the High School trip was scheduled for the week off we'd get for Spring/Easter.

But there you go, I was a Junior in HS and went on a trip to Mexico with my Spanish teacher and other kids. I had a blast! We went to Mexico City, Taxco and Acapulco. I took some photos with my crappy little instamatic camera that would produce these little square photos with rounded edges.

Ah....the memories!

For what it's not worth...

I can't really create any tips for anything that happened so long ago. Instead I'll just entertain you with some of my crappy little photos that I took.

One thing I remember vividly from the trip was that our hotel was overbooked so they put me and three other girls into the 2 floor Presidential suite. This shot was taken from one of our panoramic windows.

It didn't suck.
