A recap of Friday Feb 15, 2013 as described by Sun-Ling in an email to a friend.
1. La Ensenanza was closed.
2. The military show in the Zocalo is yet to be unveiled.
3. Took Metro to Universidad.
4. Walked to the Sculpture Garden.
5. Walked to Library, Rectorio, Stadium.
6. Walked to San Angel, quick snack & drink in Plaza San Jacinto
7. Quick stroll through San Jacinto church & grounds, may have been here in 2003
8. Casa Del Risco, impressive fountain
9. Walked to El Carmen, church closed, skipped the museum
10. Walked to Carrillo Gil, quick stroll realized none of the permanent collection was on display. Complained and got our whole 38 pesos of admission refunded. What kind of museum are they running?!
11. Tried to Metrobus to Teatro Insurgentes, card did not work, walked instead.
12. The mosaics at the Teatro were exquisite.
13. Got on the Metrobus by using a kind young woman's card.
14. Polyforum was easily identifiable from the bus, not just by the station name. Had not seen this much David Siqueiros before. But the ceiling murals were closed?! What's going on?!
15. Walked to La Condesa vegetarian restaurant and finally lunched.
16. Walked to La Condesa Hipodrom. A lot more art deco buildings than we expected.
17. Metro back to Isabela la Catolica. Quick look at Regina Coeli, good thing you highlighted it for us.
18. Shop for takeout and breakfast.
19. Zocalo was not very much light up.
20. Passed by Santo Domingo which was better lit.
21. Back to hotel
