Holiday Inn Cuernavaca

... Next it was time to climb up to the top of the mountain. Tepoztlan is already at an elevation of 4000 ft and we climbed up to 6000 ft. The climb was very difficult. Rob and I needed to take lots of breaks, but Buzz was ready to go! The elevation was not affecting him the way it was for us. It was definitely more challenging than I had imagined. It took us about 1 ½ hours to climb to the top. We were quite surprised to bet met by little animals that look like anteaters called ...

FLUO EST AU MEXIQUE !!<br><br>En ce joli Samedi d'Octobre direction la ville voisine de Cuernavaca (1h de Mexico en autobus), dans l'Etat de Morelos. Beaucoup d'habitants du DF (District Federal = ville de Mexico) possèdent une maison secondaire ici où ils viennent passer les week end et les vacances loin du chaos.<br><br>La ville est très colorée, il n'y a pas 2 facades de maison de la même couleur ...

I hate to complain on a blog, but Americans like me that are traveling or staying in Cuernavaca need to know that the Pharmacy department at Wal-Mart, located in Domingo Diez Ave., discriminated my mother today because she was on crutches... since while on board of the electric scooter none of the clerks there paid attention to her, and they continued serving other costumers that arrived way after my mother did. She had to grab her crutches and stand up... when I got there I ...

... flight schedules. Anyway, we spent the even having chelas or drinks on the roof, watching evening fall on Cuernavaca and always keeping an eye out on the thunderstorms that approached from Tepoztlán. We watched Gael Garcia Bernal's film Déficit, an almost sort of documentary but more of a simplified view of classism in Mexico. It wasn't very original, and Gael's haircut was definitely not flattering, but the excessive use of Mexican slang words made for good practice. What a week!

... le plus impressionnant est la pirámide de los Nichos (la pyramide des Niches en français), de taille moyenne avec 6 étages en terrasse. Elle mesure 25 m de haut et possède une base carrée de 35 m de côté. Dans les murs de chaque étage, sont présentes côte à côte de nombreuses niches. Elles sont au nombre de 365.

... plus running soap operas (why are they called soap operas by the way?) telenovelas last for 3 to 6 months at a time and almost match Jerry Springer style of drama. Much loved, fast talking and repeating themes they are a great learning tool.<br><br>Feeling as though I have become more of a small town type person I decided to take a break before Mexico City and head to Valle de Bravo. Mid route I stopped in Toluca, the capital of the state of ...

... boats which you can take trips in. There is also a room which has been made to resemble the 18th century life, with paintings, furniture, and accesories costum made. As soon as I'm done going around the garden I will take a taxi to the hotel and Im also going to have to calculate how much $$$$$ I have left. I learned ...

... about the Native Americans but begins with Christopher Columbus sailing the ocean blue but I was still surprised. Sorry I forgot one other thing and that is that education is supposedly according to the Mexican constitution "free." Well not so much as the families for one, need to purchase the uniforms; in some cases the desks and also they need to go to the bank and pay a "voluntary" fee to the school of which the kids are not permited to attend school until the payment ...

... labia majora; the kindergarten kazoo band; the island's president fabio minora; and the clitoris island soccer team mascot, the local butcher dressed in a vulva costume. the upside to this tragedy was that the pilot was the only casualty from the jet itself. fritz and nearly a hundred and eighty kilos of the purest high-grade cocaine landed safely in the middle of the empty block where the saturday markets transpired. this was a sunday. there were no other passengers on the plane.

... outside in an afternoon rain, but we did visit a feria that the local church has been putting on every year for 280 years. The fair lasted a little over a week and most everyone seemed glad to see it go. This is because for the fair, they close the major street into Cuernavaca to set up these little tiendas or shops. The people who have the shops work there all day and evening, then sleep there at night. The church kept ...
