Hotel Mision Urique

... was in front of a paneless window, so what with the buzzer, the freezing wind, the minute seats and the overcrowding, it was far from a pain free trip! Then we get dumped in the middle of nowhere to swap to a smaller newer minibus with seats for 7 into which we were forced to cram 10 adults, 2 children and 2 babies - I had to spend the whole trip with my leg up on the seat in front as there wasnŽt room ...

... that we were in a city with a high altitude and lots of pollution. Every time we start to ginga or climb stairs, we are wheezing very quickly. My Spanish is poor, but my spirits are high. Yesterday we visited the zocalo, or main plaza and saw a few demonstrations. Impromptu rodas abounded in the zocalo, cathedrals that are all sinking into the ground, on ...

... his horses... riding on the canyon ledges... everything is a long way down.   This ride is not for the faint of heart!  Another couple has scrapped this ride out of fear and terror!  These moments we put our trust in our horses and Cecilio, our well experienced guide.  Smart horses know their way on this trail... know their hoofing well...!  Amazing!!! Awesome view on top.  Very tranquil...once in awhile we come across one of the Tarahumara women peeking out of the bushes with a ...

... I have a typical mexican dish, made in a 'lava' pot. They call it spicy, but it is not. It was almost 18h when we are back, we need a shower, I talk to you guys, go for a simple meal and bed!!! The pyramids were demanding. apart from the climb up and down, there was a 3 miles walk on very uneven grounds. I will get back to you soon. I still did not tell you about the feel, smell, people, strange things and the characteristics of Mexico City!

... yellow, green and red lights, the soundtrack to this scene playing in my mind "I wanna wish you a merry christmas from the bottom of my heart...". For a moment, I am transported to somewhere in the South West of australia, driving in an ageing Holden of some description, the music alternating between the 3 B's: Boney M, the Bee Gees and Billy Joel. The moment is short-lived however, as I'm thrust ...

... been that good. I sat next to Roberto on the way to Mexico City. He was talkative at times and helped me out a bunch! The paperwork on the plane, he waited for me to get my luggage, showed me where to exchange money and helped me get a taxi. Very nice guy who wished me luck and "God Bless". So far so good! I think Senora Rosa Casas, the head of the household IŽm staying ...

... girls can only dream of. As I checked and sent emails in the hostel to tell friends that I had arrived here and was fine I heard my name screamed from the street below. This was not a scream of anger, nor a scream fear... no it was scream of desperation, a scream that was searching. This was A Street Car Named Desireš kind of scream. Huitzilopochtli had thought he had missed me because my balcony doors were closed even though the ...

... regular treatment. After we left the room, Juan Carlos (our translator) asked us if we had noticed that he was trying to hide his face from the patient? We told him that we hadn`t. He explained to use that he had worked with this man a few years earlier when he interned at the Office of the Secretary of State. He hadnŽt seen the man in a long time, and had no clue that he had AIDS. It really shook Juan Carlos up ...
