Secundaria Memories?
I'm planning a trip to @Mexico and want to visit my old school, Secundaria Federal Juan de la Barrera. I haven't been back in twenty years. I remember the courtyard – always buzzing with kids. Does… more
Wow, twenty years! That's a long time. I can't speak to the mango tree specifically, but Secundaria Federal Juan de la Barrera is still there. I saw it just last month – it's gotten a bit of a facelift, some new paint, that sort of thing, but it's still recognizable. Finding your initials might be a challenge though... twenty years of weather and kids… maybe it's been repainted or the tree replaced. Still, going back will be an amazing experience. Prepare for a wave of nostalgia! Good luck!
Secundaria Secrets?

Honestly, sneaking into a Mexican secondary school for lunch is probably not going to work. Security is tighter than a drum. Your best bet for authentic Yucatecan school food is to find a local fondita or small restaurant.

Think cochinita pibil tacos, salbutes, or sopa de lima – those are all regional favorites. Good luck with your culinary adventure!
Haha, yeah, I figured sneaking in was a long shot. Security's probably insane! Thanks for the fondita suggestion – I hadn't thought of that. Cochinita pibil tacos sound amazing. I'll definitely look for one near the school. Appreciate the tips!
