Some updates...

I just realized that I haven't written so much in my blog during my stay in Mexico, I guess is a combination of not having time in the office, and not being able to upload my pics, but this week I was able to overcome these two challenges, since my boss is out of the office (so I don't have to work 12 hours a day!) and my roomie bought a computer that I could use yesterday night to upload my pics, so.. here I go.

Bosque de Chapultepec

It claims to be the biggest green area in Latin America built in an urban zone, and it surely is. It has a lot of attractions: A very interesting zoo that keeps the animals in a habitat very similar to their original one, a big lake (artificial one), a very nice castle (where former presidents and independecy heroes used to live), a wonderful musuem (Museo Antropologico) that describes perfectly the old tribes that used to exist in different parts of the country, and lots and lots of green. I think every part of the bosque deserves its own post but I just wanted to give you a sense of how especial this place is.

This Bosque, is visited for some hundreds of thousand of mexicans and foreigners every weekend, unlike most parks in Brazil, people visit them not to make sports (like running, biking, skating, etc.), more likely mexicans will eat "tortas" (their version of sandwich), tacos, or yes.. fruits, only that their fruits will contain chile (in powder) and lemon! very unique!!
