- Palacio de Bellas Artes
Before I left Texas, people kept telling me to be careful, as they knew I would be in Mexico City soon. For the first time in years, I did worry a little, because of the news about violence, especially in Reynosa. It is the same as always though. I go for a 4 or 6 mile run and enjoy my family, the sites and the food. My family thinks it is interesting when I told them that lately news programs and articles mention how dangerous it is in Mexico and advising American’s not to come for spring break. This is spring break for me, but I am spending time in the City, not at the beach. Wednesday I spend the day at “el Zocalo” taking photos and “el Palacio de Bellas Artes.” My 19 year old cousin was my guide. She is wonderful… I will post pictures in a few days. My aunt mentioned Obama being here, but too bad, that is a month from now.
Below are a few more added later. I thought it was interesting that they had the flag inside the church… It is common, I usually dont even think about it twice, but in the U.S. some people are so oppossed to mixing church and state. The photos of the man, I took from across the street. I just saw him waiting and someone finally went up to buy chips whith Chile. The boy, well, he was outside of a beautiful post office. He was writing on a letter, I used a wide angle lens so that it did not seem like I was getting him in the photo, his parents were sitting off to the right and were already kind of looking at me.
