Hola from Mexico


We arrived in Mexico city last night. The flights went off without a hitch and passed through customs and immigration no bother. We met up with Gaby who will put us up for the week and hopefully show us around all the tourist spots. She lives abot 10km outside the city beside the university and on leaving the airport we prepaid for the taxi- a good idea as it must have taken us about 40mins to get to her place and that was because off the traffic. 9.30pm at night and it was hectic. I dread to think what rush hour is like over here. As soon as got onto the motorway we could smell the smog and pollution. Lorraine and myself have been sneezing ever since. Last night wasn´t too warm so we didn´t have to have the windows open- just as well as the mosquitos are huge over here- just aswell i brought 95% DEET!

So jealous Jen.. can hardly see out the window of my classroom with all the rain.. they think we will have floods again!! Great fun. So glad to hear that you are getting on well. All grand here. Will keep in touch but I am afraid I won't be doing anything too exciting in the forseable future but you never know!!
