Week 12.5: "I'm 99% sure they robbed you because you're white."

(MOTHER'S NOTE:  I became aware of this little story two weeks after he emailed it to his dad, brother, and all of his friends.)

So, this is a story that, if you have any contact with my mother, you shouldn't tell her, because she'll freak, probably.

So we had arrived for the comida a half hour early, so we decided to sit and plan our day. We had been sitting there for five minutes, then two guys came up to us. I thought they were going to ask us about church, but instead, they pulled out a knife and stole our watches and money. We lost about 70 pesos plus two 100 peso watches. So yeah, we got robbed at Knifepoint. After this whole ordeal, I was pretty roughed up, and upset that there's nothing you can do about it. Elder Ortiz just said, 

"Honestly, I'm 99% sure they robbed you because you're white. They never would have just robbed me." 

So it was kinda a weird day. Just thought I'd tell you in case you thought that you wanted to be in mexico on Saturday, because you probably would have been robbed.

Apparently, we're the only ones for a long time that have been robbed, but, of course, it happened to me, in week 5.

I'm good though, don't worry. Just a fun experience that I thought youd want to hear about. 

¡Nos Vemos!
