My mom's family is from Puebla, but I'd never seen the holiday in the capital. Five days, very little sleep.

At opening, before the heat.
Day 4 2 Nov

Xochimilco 🇲🇽

Ciudad de México, Mexico

A trajinera, a cooler of micheladas, a mariachi band we definitely overpaid.

31 Oct

Teotihuacán 🇲🇽San Juan Teotihuacán, Mexico
Walked the Avenue of the Dead at opening. You can't climb the Pyramid of the Sun anymore, and honestly it's bigger from below.
2 Nov

Zócalo 🇲🇽Ciudad de México, Mexico
Ofrendas across the whole square. Marigolds everywhere, the smell of copal.
2 Nov

Museo Frida Kahlo 🇲🇽Coyoacán, Mexico
La Casa Azul. Buy tickets online days ahead — learned that at the door on day one.
2 Nov

Xochimilco 🇲🇽Ciudad de México, Mexico
Trajinera + micheladas + a mariachi band we overpaid. Would overpay again.
