Mexico City, corrupt capital of Mexico.

Antropology Museum, Mexico City, Mexico

Benito Juárez Airport, Mexico City. At ten we picked up Belén’s parents in our rental car and at ten-ten we’d already almost been almost “bitten”, not by dogs wearing a tag on the collar, but by cops wearing one on their chest. That’s the Mexican police and their famous mordidas , or bribes.

Merida, near the Chichen Itza pyramid.

Chichen Itza, Mexico

We’ve been in Mexico for more than a week and after so many ruins and corn tortillas we’re turning into Aztecs. The country is interesting, but everything repeats itself. Mesoamerica is full of pyramids of all sizes and cultures. There are so abundant it has plenty to spare. Zapotecas, Mixtecas, Toltecas and more. The same indigenous community with different feathers. If the textbooks keep them separated it’s because none of was able to dominate the others for a long period of time. Only the Maya in Yucatan and the Aztec in the Mexico Valley imposed themselves on their nearest neighbors. But little else.

Holbox, a little paradise in the Mexican Caribbean.

Tulum, Mexico

In two weeks we’ve travelled half of Middle America and its surroundings. From Mexico we went to Guatemala, then on to Belize, and later up north, entering into Mexico again. It felt like coming back home. The bus driver bribed the policeman at the border with a bottle of rum and he, in turn, didn’t charge us anything. It’s good that we share a common language, because the rest of the tourists had to pay 25 dollars a piece, and so he raked it in.
