36 Pupusas

I was going through some of my older pics from previous mission trip to El Salvador and I came across a cetain pic and I was reminded of a hilarious thing involving pupusas that occurred when on a mission trip with the team from Stonebrook. So it was our last night in ES and a group of us from the team decided that we needed to eat pupusas one last time, because they are the most amazing food ever. So take into account that it is about 11pm and so we were at the hotel and Patrick one of the guys goes up to the waiter person to order pupusas. The thing is that Patrick really didn't speak Spanish...he was good at using broken Spanish, so he said that he wanted 12 pupusas but I guess the waiter was a bit confused and really didn't understand, because about 15 minutes later(after we were wondering why it was taking so long to cook just 12 pupusas) the waiter guy came over and asked if anyone in the group spoke Spanish, so Anna and I said that we did and he was like "did your friend mean 12 pupusas or 12 orders of pupusas?". At that instant I knew what had happened and then the waiter said that he thought Patrick wanted 12 orders of pupusas, which translates to 3 per order so 36 pupusas...it was actually really really funny.


Here are the 36 pupusas! :)
