Loreto y Pena Ecological Park

So, what happens when you try to make plans on a Monday?
Monday is closing day for 99% of the attractions in Mexico City, so i thought, I know! I will go and visit some more parks. They are usually beautiful and free, i can take my own lunch and have a good day out.
Well that was the plan.
Travelling an hour to my first stop, the botanical gardens at the university, i discovered it is school holidays and so, even after looking it up on google, and asking a lady who worked at the university if it was open, i discovered it was not.
Plan B, head further south and go to another park.
I was expecting too much, and was therefore a little disappointed, but took the time to take some photos anyway.
So 3 hours (return) travelling time equated to 1 hour in the park and 1 hour in the shopping mall next to the park for lunch.
Not what i had planned but at least it was good practice for use of the public transport.Read more
