Sometimes I go to Mexico and feel depressed and yucky. But the way you put it, you're right! The food is *amazing*, and the people do their very best with what they've got. Thanks!

I never realised how similar Mexico and Africa were. It must be a bit like the border between South Africa and Zimbabwe. On one side what seems like endless wealth, and the other side, unrelenting poverty ... Thanks for sharing your trip with us Kelli! I never realised how similar Mexico and Africa were.

Funny, as it was never on my "I want to go" list. I was all about Asia, Europe and Egypt. Then I was selected to represent Guides Australia (Girl Scouts) at a Dialogue for Peace held in Mexico in 95. That lead to me volunteering there for two 6 month periods, and a couple of touring trips. Then life happened and my last trip was 1999. We finally went back this year (8 years later), and luckily hubby hearts Mexico too, so there will be more trips. I too adore Mexico. Funny, as it was never on my “I want to go” list.

Unfortunately Mexico, the touristy parts at least, are on Canada's shit list right now. There have been four tourists killed there in the last year and the Mexican police have been less than forthcoming. It looks like the non tourist areas might be a safer bet? I guess there is crime everywhere. I haven't been to Mexico since 1988 and thought it was wonderful....ciao What beautiful photos.
