After two long days in Mexico City we are off to Morelia where we will be brushing up on our Spanish. We've enjoyed our stay here and have managed to eat more cheese and beans than we ever thought possible in two days. Yesterday we figured out the metro system and rode a few trains around the city, successfully avoiding a tag-team pick pocket attempt (we think they were rookies) as well as almost getting stuck in the subway door (they don´t wait for anyone). We toured the Casa de Luis Barragan (his own personal house that he designed in the 1940s). It was amazing, full of color and light and very modern even for today. Our tour guide gave us a ride to a popular neighborhood for lunch, where among the many options was Starbucks. We opted for a local restaurant where we were serenaded by a tambourine-toting Nirvana cover band...so much for getting out of Seattle! Our Internet time is running out and we have a bus to catch...Hasta Luego!
