This is a continuation of my previous post on Mexico. From Oaxaca we continued onto Mexico City. I had a little apprehension going to the enormous city as I wasn't sure how secure we might be in the city. One of the main reasons for visiting as I had schedule to take an English test for the Australian work visa I'm hoping to get later in the year. (I will talk about the visa in another post)
We stayed 1 night in the central area next to the huge plaza Constitucion. I believe its the largest plaza of any of the Spanish countries in the Americas.

From Mexico City we went slightly north to see Teotihuacan and enjoyed climbing the Pyramid of the Sun. The size of the Pyramid is amazing. Climbing it was a good leg burner. haha! Its amazing how many smaller half pyramids there were in the complex. There are more in the area that have not been uncovered yet.
Then we headed south to the Yucatan Peninsula and enjoyed kayaking and swimming in Cenotes and the ocean.
