It has been four days since we arrived in Mexico City. I have been waiting long to write this post. In this blog I will be sharing some facts, observations, and things to do in Mexico. When I said I had been waiting to write this post for a long time, but didn't...well the reason would be the absence of an international travel adapter plug, you see. So along with every experience I share in this blog, I would try to jot down as many Spanish translations as I can, so that when you visit Mexico, or any of the Latin American countries you would know what you are talking about!
We landed at the Benito Juarez Airport, Mexico City and the taxi and radio cab kiosks helped us find a quick ride to our hotel which is at the heart of the city. On the way to the hotel I noticed that the city had best of both the worlds, the old and the new, the traditional and the modern. There are old cottages and villas alongside some apartments. And the street art and graffitis are so bright and vivid, they are sure head turners.
Driving towards Paseo de la Reforma, our address for the next couple of weeks, the city becomes more and more beautiful. The city has done a great job at preserving its art and architecture. There are towering statues on either side of the roads (more on it coming up later), and the roads themselves are in mint condition. So here we are at the Paseo de la Reforma, a main street that runs through an upscale residential neighborhood as well as the city's historic district. This area is best visited on a Sunday. Why you ask...well you will get to know this coming Sunday, when I visit it again, sans the jet lag...till then tener un gran día (have a great day)!!
