Oaxaca, Final Days

The last few days in Oaxaca have been sorta hectic. Cady is shifting her sleeping schedule and Rory has been missing naps and getting to bed late. Not some mention the bit of diaper rash that makes things a little miserable for him. Yesderday was pretty much a wash as we did little more than take a short walk in the morning and then spend the afternoon on the roof getting some fresh air and a view. For all the talk of food in Oaxaca, the best meals we've had were of tacos, beer and fried pork skin. With a palleta for dessert. Feeding a family of four for about $10 a meal. Robert likes that.

Today we Robert and Rory went and watched the construction "guys" for a long time. We saw a big roller move on down the street. Then, after naps, we went to the antigua aeropuerto area and met Mira's friend Serena at their totally awesome modern house. Getting there was a bit of a challenge as there was apparently some sort of large protest causing some roads to be blockaded. That, combined with all the construction of the roads lead to some delay. We had pasta for dinner, which Rory really liked. Desert of chocolate cookies and coffee. Very civilized. The view of the mountains from their rooftop is spectacular, and the cool breeze up there was too.

We have tickets for the bus back to Mexico City leaving tomorrow at 11 am.
