Wow...where to begin. It's been a marathon of a day. It started with getting out of Mexico City as quickly as possible. We hit the bus station about 8:30 and were out of town by 9. Thankfully we went in the nicest bus you can buy, which had seats that reclined into beds, free drinks, movies, and only 20 people per bus. Needless to say, there was enough room to spread out. It was a relaxing trip EXCEPT for the kids that were right behind us. I don't know wh...

Hi all...Sarah and I are here in Coyoacan with Jorge seeing the sights. I'm sitting in front of a Windows 98 machine trying my best so please be patient with missing apostrophes and misspellings. Today was all about starting off on the right foot. So we made sure to keep both feet tucked in bed as long as humanly possible. No groaning now, we got up at 9: 30 pacific standard, which was still pretty good considering that we had NO sleep the night before! ...

After checking into the hotel, which is nice, but in a rather interesting part of town, we headed downstairs to the travel agency to see what we could find out about tours. There...

The last few days have been a blast! It's been about catching up, getting out into the city to see all the changes that have happened, and visit those places that I've missed since having left. The 4th of July was great. Jorge and I called all the friends that I have met since coming, and we all met at a bar to watch Mexico play soccer against Chile. The game was a snore (no goals, a tie), but the company was great. I learned that my friend Edgar teaches cl...

Hey! I finally made it. The last time I wrote I was in Texas. YEEEEHAW! All that stormy weather made for about a 6 hour layover because the runway was closed. FUN! I figured all the waiting was over until I actually made it down to the immigration area in the Mexico City airport and waited almost 2 full hours in line. The sea of humanity waiting in line was depressing and if I hadn't been sitting all day up to that point I may have gotten grumpy. By...
