Arroyo Restaurant in DF: Kids, Bulls, Food, Fun
According to Wiki, Arroyo in Mexico City is the world's largest Mexican restuarant. It is also full of full for guest of all ages. The restaurant has serveral playgrounds for kids, face painters, balloon-twisting clowns - and also a Bull ring! The menu has a range of BB meats - my favorite is a BBQ goat that is cooked in a banana leaf underground. For the less stomach hardy, roast chicken and pork (carnitas) are also on the menu as well as many salads and veggie options. Arroyo is a true exper...

Outtake 2: 4th of July at Arroyo
Nice weyita! Yes, here in Mexico City, we have our own special version of spanish (some refer to it as Chilango) that includes words like "wey" (sometimes guey) to mean "dude." Also, we use "ito" on the end of all sorts of things as a diminuative. In this outtake, my friend cheers me on and calls me "dudette."

Mexico City's New International Terminal
In January 2008, Mexico City opened a dedicated international terminal, also known as Terminal Two. Filmed on May 30: From my first visit to Terminal 2 on my way to Houston (and eventually Glendale for my graduation from Thunderbird!), I share some lessons learned.

Earthquake in Mexico City, Friday May 22 2:24 PM
Today, Friday May 22 2009, we felt the second strong earthquake in Mexico City in less than one month.

This earthquake felt significantly longer than others and gained intensity as the 15 seconds event dragged on. We left our home and went for a walk; we saw many office workers outside of their buildings however, we did not witness any damage. Our home is perfectly fine and our dogs are not ph...

Hippie Chic in Condesa DF
Shopping in the park= my type of nature! Fashionistas flock to Parque Mexico in Condesa, DF (Mexico City) to check out the latest independent designs and trends in clothing, bags, shoes and even bikinis! As Grateful Dead music fills the air, I am reminded of the weekend street sales in Washington Square Park, NYC in the late 80s when a beautifully embroidered frock from Oaxaca brings me back to this pleasant current day reality in Mexico City.
