The guide in Teotihuacán.

Tweet

We hired a van with a trained guide for ourselves, mainly because Claudia has a big problem in her neck and we wanted a good car and a slow pace. We got that and a wonderful guide, all for ourselves. Claudia is interested in politics and she asked Angel everything about maybe the last 10 Presidents in Mexico. Tania has other interests and Angel taught her about the several plants that Mexican used for medicinal uses for ages. Teotihuacán is incredible. I stayed at the bottom while my daughters climbed with Angel. At one time, our guide brought me a much needed water bottle I had come twice to Teotihuacán and could see that more work has been done by the archeologists. After the visit the guide took us to a restaurant nearby (I told him that it had to be clean but not the most expensive one). And we invited him for lunch. Even at that, he continued being a guide. He explained every single Mexican dish. I ate a lamb stew that was wrapped in a thin maguey sheet (The maguey is a cactus that has many uses, please read online). Delicious. When I reached home I lain on my bed and knew nothing of the world for 2 hours More to come
