Travel: Chapultepec Zoo
The Chapultepec Zoo! It’s in the heart of Mexico City and it’s free. The zoo has many North American animals, and a whole section with bison, bears, and deer. So odd to see when our National Parks here in Canada host those animals with thousands of acres of land. Compared to the two other zoos we visited in 2022 – the Omaha Zoo and the Australia Zoo (post coming sometime this year!), the Mexico City Zoo was lacklustre for sure. Don’t get me wrong, the…

Travel: Anthropology National Museum
Anthropology National Museum is a must see in Mexico City. There is a market just outside the entrance, so it’s a busy area! The wait to get in was about 30 minutes, yet it’s nice to people watch and take in the atmosphere. Okay, let’s check out some photos. Anthropology National Museum A couple of tips – don’t try and cut in line, it doesn’t work out well. Secondly, don’t put your feet (even cross your legs and sit on them) on the benches –…

Mirador Torre Latino is one of the tallest skyscrapers in Mexico City. It’s got an observation platform, a museum, and a cafe. Check out the views of Mexico City!

Travel: Mexico City Grand Prix Snapshot
Mexico City Grand Prix snapshot – home of the 20th round on the 2022 Formula One World Championship schedule. Yes, Max Verstappen is already the world champion, yet that doesn’t change how epic these first couple of days have been. The Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez motorsport race track is fast (and I thought UTVing was fast!), yet what we love about the track is the atmosphere. Watching a race at home (usually while we eat breakfast on the weekends) is thrilling, yet live, with the speedy-hum…
