We're almost off on our next vacation, this time a week to Mexico City. Oddly, this is the first time Heather will be traveling to Mexico! I backpacked through Mexico on my longer trips in the mid-90's (from San Diego through to Belize, eventually down to Panama City). It's also our first time back to a Spanish-speaking country since 2011, so my Spanish is definitely rusty! Heather's been studying on Duolingo and has picked up quite a bit.
We're flying Air Canada and so were glad when the labour dispute settled. There's also a hurricane sort of in between Toronto and Mexico City. I checked on FlightAware this morning and it showed the flight path taking a bit of a detour west. Maybe I'll skip the hot beverages on this flight in case of turbulence.
Mexico City is somewhat like Rome -- there are ruins right in the heart of the city, and lots of museums and art galleries and history. We've pre-booked just a couple things: our visit to the Frida Kahlo Museum (it's timed entry), and the Sunday morning performance of the Symphonic Orchestra at the Palacio de Bellas Artes. The rest will depend on the weather.
We're off to the airport shortly, ¡hablamos luego!
