CDMX

Where to begin?

I loved Mexico City, best city in the world for me right now, vibrant, individualistic and fantastic. Stayed in La Condesa. Here is a load of pics thrown 'juntos'.

BTW traffic is fine, and i have the terrible exhaust that Tom H would say goes BRRRAPPP! As much as I hate it people notice it... Actually everyone drives v defensively because you expect someone to pull out without warning... No, not like that Andy H...

I went to the Anthropological museum twice, its world class... Aztecs ad Mayans... awesome. We have stone hedge...

whole structure held up with this fountain...

Contrary to popular belief, below not calendar but a good old gruesome sacrificial stone. Ya in ya face love.

menacing

Dude that makes a good cocktail badly...

dogs line ups

is it a Lion?

No a dog shaved to look like one with demin jerkin.

YES!

Now did I ever tell you the joke about the Mexicans and the bacon tree?

Well, this a BUBBLEGUM TREE

Pretty and disgusting... I like it

Goth, outside the cathedral

Striking, powerful bling on epic scale...

Horse

bad bar

reminds me of something on a mantle in Newcastle...!

having a siesta

subway heat with water fan

New friend I met at Lucha Libre...

Mathilde, she's French and by oh my, she rides around the world on her moto - with her whole family! - Sadly not at present. Check her and her off road chic... Damn!

Friend of Mathilde, Ms Sonia, drinking horrid chili beer?!

Its bigger than her head but she showed no fear.

lucha!

Lucha!

And here we all are with the lovely Mr Bernard.

Lucha!

Pizza!

Sadly no time to hang out, went to this gallery and saw a large collection of Rodin, albeit working copies... Just amazing, I forget how brilliant...

Went here...

Massive Pyramid things, good after the Museum.

I trotted up this fella quickly and got a small round of applause at the top... had to do ROCKY arms in the air and explain the stairs at home.

Randomly helped my airbnb host Nohemi by taking

her dog to the vet. She is very funny... Tiku and I are old dogs.

went to see this castle place whathamacallit

A museum now, This paining typical story of first western contact, them heathens...

How contemporary is this painting! 1780 or somesuch.

..giving head... or skull ffthreading

One thought occurred to me - you have to be pretty brave to be an honest painter on the old days...

esp this fucker... Murrrdurrr

After only 5 days its my last night in Mexico and the lovely Nohemi and I go for dinner.

On the way thunder and lightning,

No one here bats an eye lid to a storm, its so common this time of year. Except when it rains it pisses it down

Damn fine restaurant, 5 DIFFERENT KINDS OF SALSA IN ORDER OF HOTNESS... I AM IN HEAVENNNNNNaghhh....

CHURROS WITH 5 DIFFERENT SAUCES! FEEEEKKK MEEEEEEE SIDDEWAYYSSSS

Oh yearrr

Tiku got leftovers !

I admit I also found time to nail the Narcos series on Netfix - such a welcome break... just to do nothing...

Back on the road tomorrow heading for the jungle !

I LOVE THIS PLACE
