Teotihuacan

The one question everyone asks us here in Mexico City is "Have you gone to the pyramids yet?" And by "the pyramids", they mean Teotihuacan.

Well, now we can all comfortable answer "Yes."

Of course to answer a simple "yes." means that you are lying and wish for them to stop talking to you.
So you have to add something like "Wow, it was just unbelievable!" Or "I never thought I was going to make it up all those stairs!" Just to validate what an amazing place Teotihuacan really is and prove that you are sincere.

The pyramids at Teotihuacan really are astounding, and everyone who climbs up and down The Pyramid of the Sun deserves a metal in my book!

Here is the family fresh and awake and ready for our adventure!
On The Pyramid of The Moon.

Going down was almost as hard as going up.

Ari pooping up. We aren't even near the The Pyramid of Quetzalcoatl yet.

Actually, I don't even have any pictures of Quetzalcoatl.. because I pooped out too towards the end.
