Today we were pretty touristy, which we hadn't been yet. We woke up early in hopes that our car was still alive and well on the street we where we parked, which it was thankfully. Then we had a pretty crummy yet free breakfast at the hostel, and started out. We went to the main square in the historic district and proceeded to enter the cathedral where we got to see mass and go to the roof! When I say we went to roof, we literally were walking along wooden planks to different sections with no ropes or railings enclosing our path. Very cool and nonamerican safety regulations! Then we went to Tenochtitlan and saw the Aztec ruins.

After a quick pit stop to eat some super yummy lunch, we proceeded to the Museum of Torture, which is just as traumatizing as you might think. Afterwards we came back to the hostel and got in a little nap, which was great and rejuvinating! Dinner was again very good, we have had good luck with food thus far. Then we walked around the city a little looking for a place to grab a couple beers, but were unsuccessful, as everything was pretty much closed. So we came back and hung out and had an easy night. Quick note...Mexico City has more police officers that I have EVER seen! Literally every single block in downtown has a transit cop or police officer. Makes you feel pretty safe.
