scary clown in the subway

Here in Mexico City we have stayed with Carlos and his adorable family for four days. On our first day here we went to the museum of Frida Kahlo. I fell in love with her vibrant colours and especially how she decorated the kitchen. Sanna, thank you for the tips! I had no idea it was in Mexico City ;)

We have also gone to Teotihuacan. Spectacular pyramids with steep steps under a hot tropical sun. Although I insisted on spraying Christoffer with sun block he wiped it off and now he looks like a redneck with a red neck.

In Lonely Planet they warned us of not getting into any cabs with strangers but that's exactly what we did on our third day. We were totally lost when this mexican girl in our age suggested to get into a cab with us and show us the way. The girl later said: "I have never been abroad myself but I hope that if I get lost one day in some other country just like you someone will do the same for me". Hard to believe but sometimes people are nice, genuinely nice :)

What else, we've been to a concert with Invisibles Amigos (listen to their hit El Disco Anal), partying with our new friends from Mexico and USA, paddling and just enjoyed the big city. Next stop, San Cristobal de Las Casas.

Over and out.

Oh, vad underbart att höra att ni åkte till Fridas hus! (och så avundsjuk jag blir, haha). Grymt med blogg, jag ska följa den lika flitigt som AIK:s spelschema (det ni!). Tened cuidado och njut! Gran beso /Vuestra Mutta
