a little bit of mexico: part two - Mexico City!

In Mexico City, our little group doubled and went from three to six! We had a lovely few days exploring the city, visiting Frida and enjoying perhaps a few too many coffees and cake.





I was so excited to visit Frida Kahlo's house and was definitely not disappointed! It's fascinating to be able to look inside her bedroom, studio, kitchen and dining room - I also loved the little facts such as "this is the bed where Trotsky slept when he stayed in 1937".



After a couple of days, my friends continued on with their journey, while Jack and I stayed to see a little more of Mexico City. We explored the Centro Historico, attempted to visit the Diego Rivera Museum (unfortunately it is closed on Mondays!), hunted for murals and spent an afternoon floating around Xochimilco on a colourful boat.

























Like a lot of Mexico, I was surprised by just how pleasant Mexico City was - so much pretty architecture, history, art, good coffee and yummy vegetarian eateries! Next stop - Oaxaca!
