MEXICO
Mexico City - Puebla - Oaxaca - Puerto Escondido - Tapachula - Guatemala City
From the high altitude and air pollution of the capital to the severe humidity of the pacific coast! A quick summary to catch up...A great country but we won't be rushing back. A good place to start the trip as there's so many English speakers, backpacker hostels and well trodden tourist routes with backpackers and holiday makers. Aztec ruins galore, the highlight for me would have to be a lightning storm on top of the Pyramid of the Sun at Teotihuacan, an Aztec ruin.

We even took in a pilgrimage site in Mexico city - the Basilica of Guadelupe
