1. Carlos arrived at a festival in Mexico City to perform his mariachi-style music only to discover that (gasp!) his guitar had not been placed into its case! Swiftly, he hopped into a taxi and started to retrace his steps. The first of these steps was a volcano situated in three states: Mexico, Morelos, and Puebla. What volcano did Carlos visit? Pico de Orizaba Arenal Volcán de Fuego Popocatepetl

2. The ride eventually brought Carlos to the Pacific Coast and the State of Guerrero. He started to search along a boardwalk in this city, but resigned to look out over the bay (of the same name). Which of these cities was he in if he was walking on the country's largest beach? Chilpancingo San Salvador Mazatlán Acapulco

This meant that Carlos could have checked out which adjacent U.S. city? El Paso, Texas San Diego, California Nogales, Arizona Columbus, New Mexico

5. Carlos made his way along the border until he reached one particular state known to share its name with a small Mexican dog. He found neither the canine nor his guitar; instead he found a large expanse of desert. What is the name of the state he was in? Answer: (One Word - Woof!)
