We are in Mexico city !!


we were not 5 minutes into mexico city when we got pulled over and ended up paying 500 pesos to get away froma sweet faced, insistant, corrupt cop ... Blanca totally takes responsibility for payng up. I believed the jerk when he said he would impound the car :(

we are in a very nice hotel RIGHT IN THE CENTER OF TOWN called Hotel San Diego. We highly recommend it - not 5 stars but spotlessly clean, great location ...and very reasonable ...

capt kw - it was not pretty and Les was still upset about the whole deal at 3 in the morning .... I really did pay for it out of my pocket as I was the one that insisted we pay up and leave fast ..... hated the whole scene and fell for the cop threat hook, line and sinker :(

Woody or anyone ' if i have to choose between teotihuacan and xochimilco ....what do you recommend ????????????????
