A quick trip to Mexico

I don't lose stuff.  In fact I am good at finding stuff.  I am also pretty good and finding other peoples stuff for them.  Sometimes just throwing something like a school ID into a mailbox will get it back to the right person.  I know that because I used to work in a school.  We would get envelopes all the time with IDs even whole wallets.  The envelope would just say "Found in Loose Mail".  Sometimes when I would give a kid his wallet back he did not even know he had lost it.

The other day I was crossing the street and looked down and thought I was looking at an old fashioned  bankbook.  It was not.  It was a Passport, a Mexican Passport.

The only address in it was in Mexico.  I was not going there to return it.  Nor was I going to drop it in a mailbox.  This I did not trust the Post Office with.

But it was not hard to bring it to the Mexican Consulate on E 39th St, know as
Consulado General de México en Nueva York.

I did not even know if they would let me in, but it was not a problem.

I just said that I found a Mexican passport and wanted to bring it here.

I got a quick smile and thank you and was back on US soil in less than 30 seconds.

I was gonna go get some chicken and rice for lunch but then I saw a better alternative.

A taco truck across the street from Mexico.

I think I got the gringo special and it was ok.

3 Pollo tacos that were nothing like you could get at Toco Bell.  It was nice to eat them next to the truck.  There were only Spanish voices.
