Greetings from Oaxaca!

We are making our way through Mexico. It seems like ages ago that we flew out of Buffalo. We hooked up with my pal Mario (from Habitat) for a few day in Mexico City. He has a wicked pad in the hills where we chilled out and dashed in a out of the city to take in some of the sights.

From the city, we flew to Villahamosa and checked out the giant Olmec Heads. I did a paper on these ancient sculputres back at Western. We zipped deeper into Chiapas and visited the Mayan ruins in the jungles of Palenque. Spent a few days over Easter in San Cristobal de las Casas in the highlands. On Good Friday the people of the city took the streets and acted out the stations of the cross and the crucificion of Christ for all to see. It was surreal.

We are now in Oaxaca City wandering, eating and drinking the mezcal! We are heading back to Mexico City tomorrow to hook up with my friend Nacho´s parents, then with good luck we are going to catch a night of 'Lucha Libre' - Mexican wrestling!

Can't wait to see you guys and catch up! Adios amigos!
