Day 4...

...and our last day in Mexico City.

(sorry it has taken me soo long to finish posting pictures. I have ALOT to catch up on now. Between school and waiting for Peggy to send me her pictures I apologize for the hold up. I promise I'll finish posting these much quicker now!)((Thanks Peggy!))

We started the day by taking the metro (which is the busiest metros in the whole world!) to Chapultepec Park.

We saw the Monument to the Hero Children (Ninos Heroes)

Then we explored the Anthropological Museum

We met some school kids while we were there who were so fascinated with us white americans that they wanted to be friends with us.

After the museum we walked around the park. (Thanks to Peggy we got a little lost, but it was worth the adventure)


The we went to Benemerito, which is an LDS high school in Mexico City.

We had a little Q&A session with the students who were graduating soon about BYU-Idaho.
Then we had some free time to hang out with them so we went and played basketball

Gringos Vs. Mexicans

Then we saw a performance of Ballet Folklorico at the school. It was really cool and the dancers were really good.

More from Mexico City!

Day 3:

On day three in Mexico City we visited Tenochtitlan.



We went to a museum

Walked around the city and saw some beautiful cathedrals



Went to the top of the bell tower,which overlooked the city, to watch them ring the bells


Walked around the city some more and bought some delicious treats

Then we ended the night by going to the Mexico City temple to do baptisms for the dead.


These were some little girls we met in the visitor center. They were so adorable.

It was such an amazing experience!

Teotihuacan

Day 2:

Our second day in Mexico City we drove to Teotihuacan to visit some ancient pyramids.







We climbed the Pyramid of the Sun, which is the third largest pyramid in the world.

It got very tiring...

...but we finally made it to the top!



This is our whole group on the top of the pyramid of the sun.

We then walked across the ancient city of Teotihuacan and climbed to the top of the pyramid of the moon, which is smaller than the pyramid of the sun. Notice the platforms in front of the Pyramid which were used for sacraficial ceremonies.


We walked around the rest of the city and explored, climbed, warded off vendors and experienced "The Place Where Men Become Gods" (that is what Teotihuacan means).
