We were at the museum of Natural History today, and we were lucky enough to stumble on some shaman helping people exorcise some demons. He told Pam she was having problems with her hip and back, and he was absolutely right! Check out the movie here.
The Museum is really an amazing experience. It’s laid out just wonderfully. Each of the large rooms are jammed to the rafters with a wide range of artifacts. Each period in Mexican history has a dedicated room. There is a room for the Toltecs, the Aztecs, etc etc. You could spend several days seeing this place. There is just so much to see.
Marlene and Jorge have been amazing tour guides (I’m sure I’ve mentioned this many times, but it bears repeating!) and they’ve really shown us a lot of things we wouldn’t have seen. Now the Museum we would have seen, but it’s been great to see it with someone who is truly proud of it’s achievements.
Check out this one of a cool dog statue! It was in the room with a Chac Mool, the famous reclining figure, who is Mayan or perhaps Toltec. So I’m guessing the dog is either from the Mayan or Toltec civilization as well.
The next time we come to Mexico City, we’ll definitely be returning for another visit! The variety of art is really amazing.
Here we are just before the Big Show at the Comfort Suites Caribbean Luau. It features Abdul the Fire Eating Dancer, limbo (with crowd involvement!) and Island Music too. We had a great time, but it was a bit slow to start, and a bit long over all.
They started with music, we had some drinks. We got some food. Then Abdul did his thing when it got dark. Watching him do the limbo is really quite amazing. And humbling.
