Mexico City - again - at last

Thanks for the greetings Alex, Michele and Mum.

As I type, Josh and Charles as skating on the world's biggest ice-skating rink. The major of Mexico City has put it here to show that Mexico City is not all about crime, pollution and poverty. So now Mexico City is about crime, pollution, poverty and ice-skating.

Tony and I are staying at Hosel Isabel on Isabel de Catolica, we can probably receive phone calls, but I have not tested it yet. Our hotel is lovely, enormous 20ft plus ceilings, great organge and blue colors, wonderful courtyard and 4 beds in our room. The cost is about $40 per night. The phone number is 55 18 12 13. But you will have to work out the prefixes for yourself. The best times to call are in the morning between about 7 and 8am Mexico City time) or after about 10 at night. If you can work all that out, good on you.

Charles and Josh are at the Moneda, about a 10 minute walk away. They have a shared bunk room which includes free internet, a free tour of the city, breakfast and dinner for about $20. After dinner we are going out for dessert to celebrate Charles' birthday.
