Las Estacas y Teotihuacan

Haven’t updated in a while.. been very busy with excursions, homework, tests, going out :), and trying to get all my shopping done. It’s been fun though.

We went to Las Estacas on Friday. A natural spring, Un Ojo de Agua, expels fresh water there and it was turned into a park. It is very well kept and very beautiful. I have some great pictures but they take 10 hours to upload so I just uploaded one where you can see how clear the water is.. the green parts at the bottom of the picture are the underwater plants. We bought floatys and played on rope swings. There was also an area where you could jump into where the spring was from pretty high up. All of us loved it.

On Sunday we went to Teotihuacan, one of the most important archaeological sites in all of Mexico. We climbed the pyramid of the Sun and the one of the Moon. The pyramids were incredible. It was crazy to see the whole city more or less untouched. To this day it is a mystery as to which group of people built the city, the Aztecs were the one who discovered it. I had an allergy attack while I was there and wasn't really into reading the informational signs haha :( I want to do some research on the history of the place, it was very cool.

Thing are going well, I can’t believe we are on the last couple weeks. I’m considering staying a few extra days.. ha! Talk to you about that later mom and dad :) Nos vemos chicos.
