You've done a wonderful post which gives you a four day tour of Mexico City. Taught me through it. It looks amazing.

Yeah. Look, I nearly didn't even go to Mexico City on this tour because I thought, oh well, I just thought it was a big concrete jungle and that would have been such a tragedy had I not added it. And it's only about a two and a half hour flight from Cancun and then another two and a half hour flight to Los Carbos. So those who have been listening to us know that I took my Mexico tour about maybe ten or twelve days long, and we started in Cancune. We went to Mexico city for three nights, but I've written this post up to cover four because we really didn't, you know, have enough time. But we saw the highlights. It's quite high altitude, it's about two and a half thousand meters. At the time, I had bit of a chest cough, so I put that down to the altitude, but it was actually not really that noticeable. I chose to stay right in the historic part of town because it was easy to bob out and go to some shops, and there's museums and the big cathedral there and lots of sort of people watching and rooftop bar on our hotel was amazing. So I've added all that and so people can just jump on those links. So a couple of day trips we did, which was amazing. We went out to see some more pyramids. So if you weren't going to get all the way to Cancun and you wanted to see your man pyramids and stuff, you could do that from Mexico City and then you know, do some other parts of Mexico. Cancun is still very touristy and you know, probably wouldn't need to go back there, but you know, nothing against it. Went to Free to Harlow's Palus, which is now a museum, and that was quite sober and gosh, she had a tragic life. Polio is a child, then a terrible bus accident and she basically painted her plane. Really she was bedridden for so many years and in a wheelchair before that. The food scene's amazing. There's a Micheline dining scene in Mexico City. We went to one Micheline restaurant one evening and went floating on a river at some unesco protected brightly colored boats that you get sort of punted along and the mariachi bands come alongside, and then they bored you for about thirty bucks. They'll sing you a song, but it's hilarious. We never laughed so hard. You can go hold air ballooning. There's markets. Just absolutely loved it and I would go back in a heartbeat.

Just the streets are amazing, aren't they, Megan? Do you know that the frescoes, the the artwork and things like that a great place to wander around see.

Artwork is incredible And I would definitely want to do a mural arts walking tour. I've actually found one to add in because you've got Diego Rivieras Rivera's murals everywhere and they're iconic and I didn't get a chance to see them. Yeah, so that's another whole, beautiful, colorful part of Mexico City.
