Mexico City

A series of pictures to describe my short 24 hours in Mexico City... I'm hoping that everything comes out in the order they're in below. :)

1. My best picture to describe the traffic there. This street vendor walked right out in front of us as we were turning left, and all the cars do it as well!

2. This was my shower the first morning. We poured boiling water into the 5-gal bucket on the left, then added cold water from the can on the right until it was comfortably warm, then used a small "sour cream"-like container to pour the warm water over us. Then you just soap in between pourings!

3. This is the best picture of Edít that I have, sadly. She was our wonderful host in Mexico City, along with her son Hugo.

4. We are standing in front of the "angel" statue in central Mexico City here, though you can hardly tell... :)

5. Taylor, Hugo, and myself from left to right.

6. The view of Mexico City from the roof of our abode that first night.

7. Their neighbor was working on the roof that morning, and let me take a picture of him. Super nice guy. If you look behind him, you can see his (comparatively tall) house -- you build straight up if you can, no regulations to stop you!

8. Cool Aztec man that Taylor and I found on our walk down the main boulevard.

9. Some beautiful clouds on our flight into Mexico City.

10. Hugo Castillo himself. He's a convert of just over three years, and is back from his mission in Sinaloa, Mexico, where he served with Taylor. I really liked that family, and hope we get to visit them again.
