Today was another great day-we are approximately one week away from Mexico's independence day, so the city is becoming more and more dec'd out in red, white and green. This morning we went to the Museo de Historia Mexicana. We got to see some great exhibits and artwork. There was a great exhibit of paintings from the colonial period. The paintings emphasized the transformation of social classes over time as Colonial Spain become more Mexico and less, Spain. I also enjoyed the exhibits dedicated to the architecture of the Mayan and Aztec civilizations. There were models to show how the cities once looked-makes me want to go back to Guatemala. We ended up going out to a Chinese buffet next to the museum and we all ate too much. It was a good revival after getting sick on the first Chinese food I ate here. There was a cool hippie-ish market that was going on down a couple blocks over. I saw some really interesting antiques and saw some other great restaurants that we will have to try out. It was a good way to end a long week of exams.
