Les gens crient ...

... Sunny Delight, cafe and cup of fruit.
Landing in Santiago did not appear to be anything. I could not see a town or much. Not many trees. Mountains though.
So, Santiago was where we needed to leave and get my bags, but upon going through customs, we were told we have to pay the reciprocity fee of $131 dollars each just to go get my bag and take a flight. I was defeated but Nick was ...

... queste famiglie numerose caricate sui barconi per il pranzo del giorno di festa sono veramente divertenti, ricordano un po' le riunioni dei nostri caiunni!!
Nel canale, oltre le barche dei visitatori, ci sono le barche dei venditori di cibo e bevande, dei suonatori e dei venditori di souvenir, e gli acquisti si fanno da una barca all'altra!
Molto bello anche Templo Mayor. E' incredibile vedere un sito archeologico nella piazza della città.

Strano a dirsi ma ho avuto ...

... earth because there may be as many as six police officers at an intersection. The look of the Centro Historico is very much that of old Spain and the streets I have seen in Madrid, Barcelona or Seville. As a matter of fact, the entire Centro Historico is there because of what the Spaniards built many years ago. When one thinks of colonial architectural impact in the New World, there is only one conclusion. Spain left much more of its ...

... tour group prob 8 of us in total) it was nice then they turned around and wanted us to pay 70 peso each witch we did obversely with out any fuss.

... make money? and to use the toilet, you have to pay 3 pesos... the same as catching a bus downtown... wierd! not wanting to walk home in the dark we set off on our hike home (recommended by aaron) which allowed us to see the more business side of mexico. huge tower blocks and people in suits. we ate in another veggie restaurant, and i had my first taco... nothing like the english version. a bit like a tortilla, and full ...

... so that you can find an unexpected museum somewhere between the musuem you have just visited and the one you´rethinking of visiting this afternoon. The same kind of thing that would happen in any major European City, like Paris or London. It is polluted (that can be annoying), but oh boy, that feeling at around 6 PM when the sun starts going down, especially now in the spring that some trees have flowers, that´s worse spending the day in the quasi-smog. Actually I feel like Mexico ...

... a Xochimilco, qui veut dire terre de fleur, nous avons mis environ 2 h en en metro et rer depuis le centre ville. Le probleme est que le train s'est arrete avant notre arret car la ligne n'existe plus, quelqu'un a piquer les rails et meme la gare. Bref une fois la bas on loue un genre de grande barque pour faire un tour dans les canaux et aprecier une promenade paisible sur l'eau. Ce qu'on ne savait pas c'est que c'est la destination preferee des ...

... I was not surprised at all to see a major protest in the streets regarding the current conditions in Mexico City. People were shouting "down with the government" admist a SWARM of police. I have never seen so many police. There is a growing discontent and disconnect between the people and law enforcement. Corruption, greed and selfish ambition has plagued law enforcement, making them public enemy number 1 to the people. While we watched the protest we ate crickets! No joke ...

J'arrive la nuit et tout le monde dors. J'essaye de frapper à la porte de Philippe, mais y a pas de réponse à 3h. J'essaye même à la porte de mes remplaçantes, Dalila et Amélie, mais pas de réponse. Enfin, je m'installe à l'Hôtel Imperial... en voilà 400 $MX perdus... mais une assez bonne expérience...
