Mexico es increible, extraordinario, fantastico, maravillosa, y muy emotivo
Mexico City was fascinating - politics and fiestas on the street in the main square (El Zocalo - like trafalgar square, but flat and with the tower in the middle replaced by the hugest flag you ever saw). I loved walking around - I didn't realise I had been waiting for this so much, but it feels very much like "I'm finally here". Asia, Africa, Australasia and the USA were great preparation, wouldn't have missed them for the world, without them I wouldn't be here now, like this, eyes and ears open, soaking it all in like a sponge. It's noisy in the youth hostel, but I didn't mind, or not until about 1am anyway ... The Spanish I know is just waiting to come back to the forefront of my mind, I have pauses and gaps and fumble for words and tenses, but have read more than the headlines, and talked politics with Mexicanos as well as ordered food and bought bus tickets ...
