Rachel and I have begun our last leg of our Mexico trip, arriving in Mexico City this afternoon. We were greeted at the bus station by one of the drivers of my friend Manuel, who is an deputy finance minister of the Mexican Government,and taken to our hotel. Rachel was apprehensive about walking about in such a huge city, and glanced about as we walked watching for trouble. I, on the other hand, may be too relaxed about this place, taking pride in having lived in New York for a number of years. But this place is different (and a heck of a lot bigger, believe it or not!) So maybe our approaches will balance each other out well and we'll stay safe and have lots of fun. It's thrilling to be here.
We're staying right downtown in the historic district, and it appears that there are not too many businesses open at night around here. Dinner consisted of a Big Bite from 7-11 for me and granola bars for Rachel. We spent the evening in. I enjoyed being able to tune in Monday Night Football. We really miss our hotel in Puebla. It was amazing, and certainly has spoiled us. Pictures below are of my class in Oaxaca, us at dinner in Puebla and streets in Puebla.
