First Full Day in Mexico City

The place we are staying is a really nice small boutique hotel in the Roma Norte neighborhood. It is where the movie “Roma” was filmed a number of years ago.

Started the day with breakfast at the hotel. As usual we will likely eat our way across historic and cultural sites of wherever we visit.

On the way to the Anthropology Museum noted a shop that looked interesting.

It’s a dress shop “Psycho Bunny”?

Made it to the Museum of Anthropology. The place is huge. Well worth a visit but I would suggest getting a guided tour. One is immersed in the rich Mexican history and culture. Some descriptions are in English but most only in Spanish. The transition software on my phone made the visit much more meaningful. I did come away with the impression that the pre-Columbian cultures were fixated on human sacrifice. Hard to relate to that.

Always thought that this was a Mayan Calendar, it’s another place that they sacrificed folks.

Next we walked through one of the great parks here.

Went to dinner with Emma James and James to a trendy Mexican/Indian fusion place.

Salad with crickets was interesting

Ended the evening at a jazz club.
