Traveling Wednesdays ;)

This past summer I had the opportunity to go back to my Beautiful Mexico after 9 long years of being away from so many of my loved ones and the beautiful City that holds a special place in my heart!

It was a life changing experience in so many levels, to look back at these pictures makes my heart ache.

It was the summer of my life, and it was the last time I saw my Grand-daddy.

I miss him and I hate that I won't get to see him again. When I go to Mexico I won't get to go to his house and see him smiling at me and saying "mami, I've missed you, so tell me how's New York treating you?"

Things in life have a funny way of working out, and when you look back you realize why things happened when they did and why!

Ugh! I 'm sorry to have started this post with sadness - my sadness! But today I'm crying because I feel sad, I miss my papa Trini and there's nothing I can do.

Moving on. 

While we were in Mexico we got to go to Teotihuacan, where we got to see all of the beautiful and very big pyramids :)

Not only did we get to see them but we  got to climb the world's third biggest pyramid.

The Pyramid of the sun!

More than 250 steps!! Yikes and the steps were very steep not at all your normal steps!
Funny to say by the time I made it up to the top I was red like a balloon and SO fatigued. Miguelito the wonderful son he is couldn't stop laughing at me - lol!! He on the other hand ran up the pyramid!

All around Teotihuacan there were trees full of nopales and tunas!

My papi's childhood friend teaching Miguelito how to use his bow and arrow :)

No joke, look at how inclined those steps are!

Right after getting to the top, not SO happy - yet!!

My handsome brother Miguel :) You can see the pyramid of the moon way below!!

Yay!!! We made it to the top!! My sister and me :) Notice I climbed with sandals!

Some other structures - as seen from way up high.

My mami So happy she made it with my Miguelito :)

Wild Miguelito - the Aztec in him came out :) I kept on screaming to be careful! His answer Hay Mami - I'm fine I'm a warrior

It was quite an adventure that will not be forgotten, Miguelito loves to relive it every day!
Funny part was I climbed the pyramid with those skimpy sandals - slow I know!
The rocks kept digging in my foot, plus the entire grounds of Teotihuacan were surrounded by little red ants, and those bit and it hurts like hell! I was running the entire time :)

Love,
