after a day in acapulco, we headed to mexico city and have spent two days exploring. we are staying in the historical center, which houses some of the most beautiful buildings i have ever seen. our hostel is a block away from the zocalo, the heart of the city, which is surrounded by the national palace and the cathedral. using actual building materials from aztec ruins, the cathedral was built on top of these ruins. a small chunk of excavated ruins, which survived the spaniard destruction, are less than 50 meters away from the cathedral. construction of the cathedral started in [View Full Entry]

hope you are all well. i am in mexico and am doing well, except for a very minor cold. we spent the last two nights in a beach cabana in tulum. tulum is 130km south of cancun....so the coastline offers the same beautiful beaches on the caribbean. of course staying in a cabana offered us the luxury of walking out the door and being on the beach. but luxury has it´s price (well worth it!!!)...like mosquito nets and sandflies. there was an intense storm last night and the thatched roof of our cabana couldn´t handle all the rain so the roof [View Full Entry]
