We're home again, and it feels good!
We spent our last two days in Mexico City visiting museums. On Tuesday, we went to the Museo Nacional De Historia Castillo de Chapultepec and the Museo Nacional de Antropología e Historia. Both are worth a visit, although I felt that the second floor of the anthropology museum was pretty redundant. The entire floor is dedicated to all the different ethnic groups in Mexico, which sounds great until you realize that they're repeating very similar information over and over again for each group. It's more an issue of organization and layout; it would have been much better if they had made it easier to compare the different ethnic groups with one another.
Before catching our flight back today, we returned to the Palacio de Bellas Artes for their Frida Kahlo exhibit and then went to the Museo Dolores Olmedo Patiño, primarily for its Diego Rivera exhibit. I must say I really like Diego Rivera's work. Kahlo's, not so much...
One last note: if you're ever in Mexico City, try to make it to La Fonda del Recuerdo. We had dinner there on Tuesday and it was muy delicioso.
