Vacations: Outings

I spent a day with Cesco and Cel in Ajusco, which is a mountainous area just outside of Mexico City. I used to go there every weekend when I lived in DF. So it was nice for me to go up there and just spend the day. We had an amazing meal, which was Cesco’s first authentic Mexican meal. We had Azteca soup and a combination of meats specially prepared for a first timer, along with hand made blue corn tortillas. For as long as I have lived here and have been enjoying Mexican cuisine this truly was an amazing meal.

The meat platter!

That dog wouldn't leave us alone!

After the food we hiked the mountain and just hung out. Here are some clips of us just having fun.

Fun times! :)

No fair though, you should have posted the other one of your bull-riding efforts. - Remember? The one where you lasted only a few seconds. ;) Maybe that's the one I'll post...snicker!

Ruth the white stuff is cheese. It's a tomato based soup with torrillas, chicken and cheese, of course topped with avocado. The Best!
