Buenos Dias Mexico Lindo by Melissa

I set my alarm, but the sweet sounds of cheerful birds on my balcony teased me from my dreams long before the buzzer even thought of disrupting me. At home it would be easy to fall back to sleep, and I would be grateful for the last 40 minutes of rest before starting the day. But this is Mexico City, and my thoughts dance around all that we saw and experienced yesterday and all that is in front of us to see and experience today.

Even though we're in one of the world's largest, most populated cities, our trip is shrouded in a special kind of intimacy. The people we meet and the places we've walked all have in common an openness and warmth of heart. It is the privilege of a lifetime to be here at this moment, and to share this with Zoe.

Beyond our itinerary, I can't imagine the delights that today has in store for us. See you soon, San Angel!

Here is a link to the photos from yesterday:
