Here we are in La Ciudad di Mexico (Mexico City)! 20+million people live here. If you drew a line from Rotorua to Hamilton then to Taupo and then another line back to Rotorua you would have an approximation of the size the town; !ES INCREIBLE! We have been here three days it feels like three weeks. Day one the kapa performed in front of the NZ Ambassador and her guests at her hotel (see below). Day 2 We walked to the Zocalo where we walked around the beautiful gold encrusted Cathedral Cosmopolitan ( apparently Cortez - spanish conquistador - had to pull down a few indigenous pyramids to build it); Day 3 we have visited the Museo Nacional Archaeologica. Ka mau te wehi! It has been quite an incredible experience travelling with our students and experiencing everything together, everything good and not so good. One interesting fact you may not be aware of is that in Mexico you have to put your
used toilet paper in a bin beside you because the pipes are a bit small. Makes for a different toileting experience.
