Oaxaca
We left Mexico city on Thursday and stopped off in Teohaucan to stay in Don Luciano´s hotel for the night. The hotel was great and the mole poblana was the best ever. Now we´re in Oaxaca (woo-hack-ahh) and it´s really sunny. Oaxaca is a really nice town, there always seems to be something happening, there´s loads of native arts for sale and the center is really friendly and lively. We´re staying in posada margerita, it´s got lot´s of atmosphere and a lovely courtyard where we had breakfast thismorning. There´s a parrot in the courtyard but I don´t know if he says much other than the odd wolf whistle.

Just been in an Earthquake! it was like being on a ship, also the electricity went off. It didn´t seem like a very big earthquake but it lasted quite a long time, we dived for cover under the door frame. We can´t go downtown for our Cerveza now ´cause all the buildings have been evacuated and we won´t get through with all the people on the streets. We just heard on the news that the epicentre is on the Colima coast, they also felt it in Puebla, they´re on the phone now. Caty feels a bit sea-sick. The earthquake was 7.6 on the richter scale, I hope there wasn´t too much dammage. I saw the smoke come out of the volcano the other day natural disasters r us in Mexico.

Mexico City
Well I´m back in Mexico city again, just for a few days. We went to Mexican wrestling in Puebla last night, it was like nothing I´ve ever seen. The arena was like ´´Amores Perros´´ we were in behind a cage watching it. I even bought a mexican wrestling mask, we all wore them in the car on the way home, I wonder if that is against the law in Mexico.
Today we got the bus to Mexico city and it took an hour longer than it should have because there was some sort of accident, instead of waiting in traffic the bus turned off the road and drove accross the dusty fields to another road and went around another way to the station. One guy even got out of the bus to direct it around the trees. When we got to Mexico we went to Coyoacan and saw the Freida Kahlo Museum and had the Comida Corrida at a small restaurant.
The weather is colder than expected here but during the day it´s warm enough, I think it´ll get warmer as we head down south.
I´m off for Cervezas now.

Puebla
I´m still here in Peubla with Mafe and Barry, on Friday we spent the day in Cholula where we saw the pyramids, we were even inside one of them. Cholula is a nice town with a great night life, there seems to be alot of students around there. We spent last night in Atlixco where Edmundo has a summer house, it was really sunny and we tried to remove the transparent look from our legs and arms. I managed to undo all my good work by playing football with the boys and getting my legs covered in bruises, I knew there was a reason I hated that game. So far we´ve managed to fight off Montezuma´s revenge and we´ve been testing our belly´s to the limit by eating the hottest food. I´m sure he´ll come soon to make his point that the chilli is not a food to be messed with or taken lightly.
