Semana Santa

Finally! Spring break arrived! After 3 weeks of unfortunate events piling up, I was more than ready for a break. Lucky for me, the Mexicans like their holidays and we are given an entire 2 weeks off to relax, travel, and for me, hang out with Carlota, my South of the border travel buddy and best friend. I met her at the D.F. airport on Saturday 4/4 only to realize shortly thereafter that I should be in a different terminal. Mexico City's airport is one of those weird ones that isn't all connected so by the time I became aware of this, I was late and still had to figure out how to get to the correct terminal. After some pleading with the tram guy who wouldn't let me in sans boarding pass, I was directed to the sketchier route via 1960's RV... Luckily Carlota still hadn't made it through customs by the time I arrived, an hour after I intended. The reunion was glorious of course... we stocked up on water & cookies and headed to our destination del noche, Hotel Milan in La Roma.
