    México City Day 1!

    February 17, 2020 in Mexico ⋅ 🌙 12 °C

    Today we travelled to Mexico City and arrived around 3am in the morning, so managed to grab a few hours sleep before breakfast, and a busy, jam packed day!... As we do and had pretty much relaxed for 2 weeks prior lol! 😁 As soon as we landed here (even though it was at night) we knew we loved it straight away and couldn't wait to get out and see the sights, eat the food and drink the local beverages... tequila if we're being mega tourists lol 😂 zach wanted to sleep longer but I knew we had to get out in the city, as we only have 3 days here, and we definitely realised we should have booked more time here! But we're coming back hopefully to get our flight to the land of Oz (maybe) . So we decided to do the free walking tour (as its good way to get to know the city and the tour guides always recommended places 😉) Centro is where we are staying, so it was a good meeting point infront of the cathedral about 20mins walk away. On the walking tour Javier took us around the streets of the Historic centre with its many gallery's, museums, aztec archialogical ruins, Spanish inspired architecture (mixed with Spanish designs and even chinese decorated tiles). We also visited some good street food vendors, to see the way locals eat and its around £1 each for a huge filled taco with any meat you like, refried black beans, guacamole, chillies, picante sauce.. If you feeling brave 😏😤🔥 and the traditional white crumbly cheese topping! (they also have blue coloured tacos if you fancy it!! 😮) There is soo much history to explore here in Mexico City, its truely overwhelming but amazing. There is around 150 museums just in the city, so we definitely need more time here 😁😍Read more
