Day 2 in Mexico City

So after my 35+ hour journey, i finally arrived in Mexico City at midnight. Everything went pretty much smoothly and I was glad to have made it safely by myself. However, I thought that the plane to Mexico City was going to crash because we were flying SO low and it was so turbulent that it looked like we were going to crash in to some buildings in the way. The airport is built in the city itself where it is densely populated.

Anyways, I reunited with the rest of my team here. We are based in a region called 'Huiquixlucan' (pronounced Whiskey Lucan) which is I think west of the city centre. The area is rather safe and very family orientated with lots of little convenient shops, kids playing on the streets and dogs everywhere.

The food here is awesome, as expected. A kilo of corn tortillas cost less than an AUS dollar and it is freshly made just down the road.

We haven't done much yet as a team except read the whole bible in 77hours which was quite alright cos we were all jetlagged anyways. We taught some school kids a song and played soccer with them.

Okay, my internet time is up, but I'll write more later and put some pics up, hopefully.

Adios!
