Bill and the Pyramid

Raise your hand if you know that Mexico has pyramids? I dragged Bill against his will to Mexico city for a week to meet more of my family- my stepmom's relatives. We stayed with my uncle and his wife and they turned out to be very cool people. We were supposed to stay with another uncle of mine and his wife, but at the last minute we stayed with David and Guille because of space issues. I'm glad I got to know David and his wife because I found out that I can't STAND my other uncle Armando. He is one of the most obnoxious people I've met in my life and he tells bad jokes and laughs with this tongue rediculously hanging out of his mouth. Anyhow...Mexico is a crazy crazy place. I have a few blog worthy stories...

Going to see pyramids was fabulous but so much work. These things look huge and they are difficult to climb if you're in good shape like I am. The steps are steep but once you get to the top you have a breathtaking view of what was once the great Aztec empire...We also lost my grandparents there. Afterwards we had dinner at a restaurant that was inside of a cave and I found a piece of glass in my cactus and cheese salad and it almost broke my tooth. I had a choice betweeen spitting out chewed food into a cloth napkin in front of a table of 13 or swallowing the mixture and risking cut internal organs. Guess which one I chose?
