Arrived at Mexico City airport around 1am after a hefty delay. Got a cab to the Zona Rosa end of town where we were to meet our couch surfing hosts, Ricardo and Magelly. As we drove through the residential blocks, which had stacks of police cars patrolling, there were lots of guys trying to look in to the cab and pester us.......later found out they were young blokes 'looking for business.' Nothing to worry about after all. After being dropped off at the right address, it took a fair few minutes of standing about on the street before the security guy would let us in. Need to learn some Spanish!
Did some walking around the city centre during the next day and saw some historical sites and the Cathedral. In the evening, Ricardo and Magally took us to a Taco bar. Some were delicious, but I couldn't bring myself to enjoy eating cow brain! Gen an I both finished them though!
