Bienvenido! Mexico City
My apologies for the lack of blogging. I have spent the past week south of the border on a business trip to Mexico City. I must say that Embassy Suites Reforma is one of my absolute favorite hotels to stay at. Not only are the rooms GIGANTIC but they offer free drinks from 6-9pm featuring a very friendly bartender and bell hops that are courteous and always lend a hand. The lady that checked me in even remembered my name for the duration of our stay which was impressive. I wish we could have stayed long enough to have watched the Mexico vs South Africa match IN Mexico! It probably would have been nuts! Last time we climbed the pyramids, this time we headed to Zocalo, the main plaza that has a Cathedral and National Palace. Here is a picture of it from the sky taken from Google:

I did quite the bad job taking pictures this trip. Italy will be better, I promise.
On a better note, I was able to use a little bit more Spanish this time. I’ve added to my vocabulary of running Spanish studies, the phrase “No te preocupes” meaning “don’t worry” . I couple it with “El estudio es muy facil, no te preocupes” which translates to “The study is very easy, don’t worry” . Can I get a high five? Thanks!
