On Friday we went out to see Mexico City. The good thing about having an AirBnB that is 90 degrees is it got us out the door earlier than normal.
Breakfast was at a cute outdoor cafe. The food wasn’t great but there were piñatas. The waiter got mad when Jeff blind folded me and I smashed this one with my knife expecting candy to fall out. (Just kidding).
This man sang. I normally don’t like that sort of thing but he was really good and it was worth the equivalent of fifty cents.
Next stop was the main square which had hundreds and hundreds of these tents. At first I thought it was a REI sale. Then maybe the world’s cleanest and most orderly homeless encampment. But after some Googling found that it is a protest of educators. Maybe they’ll give us a tent if we joined them. It would be cooler than our Airbnb.
The Cathedral was huge. There was a mass going on so we didn’t take photos inside, but it was beautiful.
Next up was the Palacio de Bella Artes
It was so big I had to get this picture from across the street. Inside there was an amazing floor of murales including two by Diego Rivera.
After the museum we went out for a late lunch and I got this pretty drink.
It was gin, lavender and a bunch of other things these made it pretty and delicious.
That looks so fun!
