First Day in Mexico City

Dom and I had a great plane ride today! In fact, with a bit of a tailwind, we arrived about a half hour early. But, it was a busy day at the airport so it still took us an hour to get through customs and bagage check.

In addition to Dom's first plane ride, he also rode his first subway. We had a very smooth trip to the hotel where we checked into a great room with a balcony right in the heart of the city. Hittingthe pavement right away, we headed down to the main plaza where we visited the cathedral and watched about 100 Aztec dancers. By then it was dinner time. Dom's first real Mexican tacos. We each got a large plate of various tacos and ate almost everything. A walk through Alemeda park and a quick visit to see the inside lobby of the fine arts museum helped us digest dinner. Churros and hot chocolate were a must before heading back to the hotel.

It's been a very long travel day, so we're in early. Tomorrow, after a nice breakfast, we head out of the city to Teotihuacan to visit the pyramids.
