Nautla Km 83.5, Monte Gordo Veracruz, Central Mexico and Gulf Coast, Mexico, 232-321-0024
... amble around some nice leafy suburbs. I went to see the houses where Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo lived, joined together by a rooftop walkway - the perfect arrangement! Although he subsequently had an affair with her sister, so not that perfect. From there I walked through the Beverley Hills of Mexico City (private streets with security guards) to an old square with a 'handicrafts' market. When I walked past a second hand clothes stall the vendor came up to me and tried to flog me a ...
Mexico City, Central Mexico and Gulf Coast, Mexico lizzyletloose... vestiti in modo macabro tipo Halloween, i bambini ci provano con "dolcetto o scherzetto", ci sono venditori di cibarie in ogni dove.<br>Ho visto una mostra interessante sulla storia dell'inquisizione, allestita all'interno del vero palazzo che fu dell'inquisizione, attuale facoltà di medicina-radiodiagnostica. Anche se in spagnolo ho compreso quasi tutta la narrazione dell'audioguida; la chiesa ce l'ha sempre avuta la mania del controllo e dell'annichilimento del pensiero ...
Mexico City, Central Mexico and Gulf Coast, Mexico annoiatissima... br>During my freshman year, my friends and I went to see "Rent" at a local theatre and fell in love with the movie! When we found out that it was going on sale at Wal*Mart at 12:00 a.m. we camped out thinking there would be a line. There wasn't but I made sure to call my parents (at 12:30 a.m.) and tell them about my new, exciting purchase!<br><br><br>Durning my sophomore year of college, I underwent my second knee surgery the day after Thanksgiving. I had to wear a large ...
Veracruz, Central Mexico and Gulf Coast, Mexico meluebke... the darkness... how could that happen at noon? Well it did, and it happened for several hours and came to an end only 30 minutes before I arrived. I felt like I had taken the horns right to my gut. I walked and sulked and hoped to gather my emotions before any of the macho Mexicans saw them tumbling out. The crowds were taking down the solid wood and steel barricades that had protected them from the bulls just minutes before. As the barricades went ...

Mexico City, Central Mexico and Gulf Coast, Mexico lathajoaMauricio drove us, with four dudes (Jose funny guy, others I don't remember names.... older gentleman, young quiet trainee, friendly short guy) slept at gas station first night in grass, second night behind hotel on the gravel. Good think think think all day long. Over green rolling hills, mandarin land, along the coast, up through flat sage land up north.
Veracruz, Mexico michaela... noticing the glad wrap service they had for your bags. It crossed my mind to gladwrap ours, but of course we didn't. We checked in and headed through to the departure hall to catch our flight. We had a nervous moment when we had arrived as there were no flights listed to Mexico City, until we realised our flight was via Cancun. Four hours later, after getting off and on again in Cancun, we were in Mexico City. When we got our bags, I noticed ...
Mexico City, Mexico lizskinner... else thought it was very funny. In fact, there were some fairly sharp words for John when we finally got him back on board. His thinking, we figured, was flawed. First, a little teeny speck in the gulf is not as easy to spot as John wanted us to believe. Second, there are sharks in the gulf. Third, as warm as the water was, hypothermia and dehydration would certainly take their toll. Good thing he was wearing his inflatable! That is ...
Veracruz, Mexico lavidanueva... great pyramids in Eygpt and some others in Central mexico that haven't been exivated. I've made lots of friends at this hostel and will be sad to leave. I've teamed up with Felicity, a 23 year old medical student. We are going in the same direction so will probably share the journey. This might be trouble as we get into space cadet mode sometimes, already missed tube stops and walked the wrong direction down streets. We got ...
