Blog Post for Sunday June 17^th                                                                                                                 

Today was our second day in D.F. (Distrito Federal). After a great breakfast our plan for today was to take a “turibus” around the city. Our first stop was the Palacio de Bellas Artes. Here we saw several murals by Diego Rivera. Next we went to the Museo de Antropologia. This was an amazing museum with an extensive collection representing each geographic region of Mexico from the pre-hispanic era to modern times. This museum is well worth the trip – you won’t be disappointed! As we were leaving the museum we were able to see “volardores”. This is a ritual dating back to the Aztecs. There were five men sitting on top of a tall pole. Four of the men then began to descend suspended by one foot. They spun around the pole as the fifth man played an instrument spinning on top of the pole. After a quick dinner we were on our way back to Cuernavaca. We had a great weekend visiting D.F.!
