Start spreading the news, I´m leaving today…
Leaving Mexico City, that is. Heading to Oaxaca in the south of the country. Just booking a place to stay. Lovely dinner with Aran of Inside Mexico last night in the Lamm Restaurant. Good way to end.
Went to the the shrine/cathedral of the Virgin of Guadalupe and the pyramids yesterday – impressive but over-touristyfied – then, purely by coincidence, noticed that Alien v Predator which was on tv was all based inside an aztec pyramid. how weird.
Long bus journey this afternoon – should get down to Oaxaca about 8pm.
Pictures: check the Flickr feed. I left my camera charger in london so i´m using the iphone instead and uploading to flickr rather than this blog.
Spanish level: 0.1

Sounds like fun. I think that Oaxaca is about Helen’s afvourite place on Earth – I’ve never been, but I’ve heard *loads* about it.
As to the Spanish, you could always try speaking in English, putting an “O” at the end of every word and using an exaggerated Speedy Gonzalez accent – bound to work!
