Around the world: Mexico City

I know, I know, it seems impossible but it's true, I'm yet again out of the country, this time in Mexico City and only for one week. These are some of the photos I took today, tomorrow will post some more

Lovely pictures. I may be in love with the last one, where was it taken?

Wow, what a beautiful city! Never thought it would look this good. But where are the people?

Lovely photos - but where all the people (and you with them)? Is the painting a Diego Rivera? It's wonderful.
Looking forward to more!

there are people, there are ;-) A LOT! but I like to take picture of the sky ;-) And I don't like to take picture of me! Yes, that is one of the Diego Rivera's murales in the Palacio National

Hee, you're the ultimate traveler, Elisa. *g*

I've been to Mexico City several times. It's got a very groovy mix of the old and the new.

you're a good photographer. you should consider putting up bigger versions that could be used for desktop wallpaper. i know i'd love to use them. :)

I love to take pictures, and I like lines and light, but I think it's the first time someone suggest to make them into wallpaper ;-) Maybe I will consider it. In the meantime you can browse all my travel here:

but don't buy the books ;-) they are only there to allow people to browse the pics
