¿Guapa enough for the baño?

I Loved the bathroom attendant at Parque Metropolitano, Guadalajara.

“Guapos” y “guapas” read the sign. “Guapo” means attractive.
Guapos

The good lady was taking 3 pesos and giving out carefully wrapped sections of toilet paper at the door, as is the custom in public places.

“I’m not sure I’m guapa enough to enter,” I told her, dubiously.

“Ah, por mucho,” she assured me. “Todos somos guapos aquí. No hay feos.” (Absolutely – everyone is good-looking here.)

I was so amused that I returned with a camera to document the moment. “Ay no, voy a salir espantosa,” she protested. “Oh no, I’m going to come out looking frightful!”

“Not so,” I reassured. “Todos somos guapos aquí. No hay feos.”

She got a chuckle out of this, and sent me on my way with a blessing from God, and a fun memory of Parque Metropolitano.

Here’s a little slideshow of our sunny Sunday in the park.

  1. […] A little bathroom humor from Guadaljara. And no, it’s not what you think. […]

  2. This is really funny. I am part Mexican, and her humor is why I love my country! “ah, por mucho!” – awesome.
