After a few days on the resort they decide they want to see real small town Mexico. They hire a taxi driver and ask him to bring them to a small village so they could see what life is like. The driver says he knows of such a place about 45 minutes from the resort.

The couple walks around the small village but there's not much to see other than a mill and a small store. There is however one peculiar older man who is sitting outside on a stool next to a very old mule. They watch as one of the townspeople walk up to the old man and ask "Senor, ¿qué hora es?" (What time is it)? They watch as the old man slowly and gently raises the donkey's massive testicles, holds them there for a few seconds and replies in Spanish that it's "11:15 in the morning". The couple is very confused at the interaction.

A little bit later the couple sees another of the townspeople walk up to the old man and again ask, "¿qué hora es?". The old man once again raises the donkey's testicles, holds them there and replies, "It is now 1:00 in the afternoon".

At this point the couple is very confused and decide to ask the old man the same question. He replies in English as well as he can that it is now 1:30 in the afternoon. The bewildered husband then asks how does he tell time by cupping his donkey? The old man replies, "It's very simple. When I lift up his nuts, I can see the clock on the wall over there."
