Mexico City

Post by Bruins01 »

Anyone been? Going to be there for a week and I'm looking for things to do aside from Museo Nacional de Antropologia. Anyone have some recommendations?

On this side of the grave,
But then, once in a lifetime
The longed-for tidal wave
Of justice can rise up
And hope and history rhyme.

Every lie we tell incurs a debt to the truth.

20 years ago. A beautiful city.

We stayed in a hotel just off the Zocalo, that was used in the first Daniel Craig Bond film I think.

Teotihuacan was great (~40km out of town); Bosque de Chapultepec (the big park) was great fun on Saturday. I think we took the train to Chapultepec, you could hardly walk on the platforms due to the pencil and razor blade sellers with their blankets spread out everywhere.

Should be Béisbol season, no? Maybe take in a game?

Much appreciated. I hadn’t thought about going to a baseball game. Unfortunately los diablos rojos are on the road the week I’m there. Damn!

We do have a trip planned for Teotihuacan (with a tour guide) and the hotel is only a block from Chapultepec. Really excited to check out both.
