Another thing I forgot to mention: all Mexicans refer to Mexico City as "Mexico" or "D.F." for Distrito Federal. Good to know for the future tourist. So my second trip to the capital city was a little more saucy. I went with two of my best friends here, Molly & Marlies, also teachers at ASP. We spent our first day walking around the neighborhood of Condesa where we also went out. Marlies's friend from high school has been dotting around Mexico doing environmental research so she met up with us for dinner. Her friend from college came along too. By the end of dinner, Molly and I were the only ones still standing... Marlies and the two friends were sick with food poisoning of some sort and headed home. Molly and I proceeded to go out - que buenas ondas.
The next day we went shopping, took a stroll through Chupultepec Park. Another big & beautiful park dedicated to relaxation and cultural enrichment. Next we took off to Coyoacan Market where we were enthralled by hippy jewlery, tapestries, and steaming cups of jalapeno corn. Mmmmmm, delicioso. Beware the fact that there are not many bathrooms in this general area...
