Here are some more photos from my trip to Mexico City (Distrito Federal). We just tried the bottle of Cabernet Sauvingon I bought in Mexico for $8 US, and it was quite amazing! I you see a Baja Peninsula Cabernet Sauvignon, give it a shot!

This week I have been in Mexico city for their gaming show. Not too much to report, I worked over 80 hours last week so not much opportunity to see the sights. And my gift for all the hard work? A cold.

On Saturday I dragged myself out of bed and went with the company driver on a tour. All the other guys had to leave in the morning, so I had a nice 1 on 1 tour of the city. First stop was Teotihuacan, the Aztec pyramids just outside of the city. It took me about 2 hours to walk up both pyramids and around; having a cold and trying to hike at over 2,200m in elevation is exhausting!

Then on the way back to the hotel, Reyes took me on a tour of downtown. Many more pictures to come once I get back to Buenos Aires!

I think we should avoid trying to hide anything in the truck, look at what these guys are doing. If the border officers see a pvc pipe under the truck or hidden compartments they may be inclined to tear the whole truck apart. I don’t want to be confused with a drug smuggler. Seriously!!
