o Palacio de Bellas Artes. Immense murals by world-famous Mexican artists dominate the top floors of this splendid white-marble palace, a concert hall and arts center
We walked through this historical area, filled with crowds of people and shopping. its nice that no cars are allowed. 
I didn't take pictures inside this church, but it was really beautiful. Tyler and Gma were home sick this day, but Tyler would have loved the huge organ. 
police presence
waiting for Benjamin to come with the car, we saw 2 churches in this plaza. they were slanted due to sinking ground.
This was a nice artisan market where we could relax and enjoy souvenir shopping with no one haggling us. many vendors. we found some treasures.
e trying out the reed flutes, but deciding on a little drum. thanks again Aunt A for your patience. 
the school teachers were demonstrating - camping in tents in protest - to better their situation.
police all gone when we came by a few hours later.
· Plaza de las Tres Culturas
o So named because it symbolizes the fusion of pre-Hispanic and Spanish roots into the Mexican mestizo identity, this plaza displays the architectural legacy of three cultural facets: the Aztec pyramids of Tlatelolco [the excavations in front], the 17th-century Spanish Templo de Santiago and the modern tower that houses the Centro Cultural Universitario.
nice and peaceful to be back on campus
