                      Xochicalco archaelogical site near Cuernavaca...

             Not the most famous site of Mexico but one of my favourite....

                             What a strange tree.....It looks like a baobab

     The temple of the feathered serpent is the most important temple

             of the site and it's worth the trip, according to me

     Death in a street of Cuernavaca

     Death is everywhere in Mexico...It is part of life..

     Mexicans fear it and like it, laught at it, play with it...

     A very strange link with it



It's time to come back to Mexico City now, before flying back to Paris on Xmas day

                            Teotihuacan on a sunday afternoon... 

                            View from the pyramid of the moon...

                                          The pyramid of the sun....

We wanted to climb on the top but we gave up when we saw the queue!!

                                       Maybe one hour to wait!!!

                        As crowdy as the Mexico City metro at 6 pm...

                                                                           Teotihuacan

          The brightly coloured trajineras of the floating gardens of Xochimilco....

                              I was very disapointed.... Very expensive....

                      Not friendly people..A tourist trap, according to me

                                                                  Last day in Mexico City....
