Mexico!

Day 1:

After a very long night of traveling from Salt Lake to Atlanta we finally arrived in Mexico City.
Here we are at the airport more than excited to finally be there.

We took our luggage to our tour bus that would be taking us all around Mexico.

We took our seats and we were off!

Our first stop was the Basilica


We saw the famous cloak of Juan Diego's with the image of Guadalupe

We got sprinkled with some holy water.

Saw the original Basilica (which is sinking because Mexico City was built on water)

Climbed up a ton of stairs to two different chapels where people were worshipping and praying.

Went to Tlatelolc, or Plaza of three cultures (ancient, modern, and contemparary buildings)


Then we finally headed to our hostel to relax and enjoy the city.
