Hola Hola Hola!!

So I have had a really rough weekend....but it was all worth it!! On saturaday, I climbed a mountain in Tepozilan. It was one of the hardest things I have ever done, but well worth it when I finally reached the top! It was so beautiful! The way back down was the easiest :). Sunday,we went to the third most visited religious site in the world, The Basilica. This was incredible. There were so many people and the cathedrals were huge. It was really cool to see all of the traditional dances in the square and all of the statues. My favorite cathedral that I visited was the one for The Virgin of Guadalupe. It was gigantic, and there were so many people. I was talking to my host mom about it and she said that most of the houses in Mexico have at least one painting of the Virgin of Guadalupe. This was one of the most interesting and cultural things that I have experienced thus far. Then, we all went to Teotihacan, which is a city of ancient Aztec ruins. This was my most favorite thing that I have done here yet! We also climbed the Pryamid of the Sun, which is the second highest pryamid in Mexico. It was awesome because we had a tour guide who was telling us the stories as we went through the ruins. Also, when we reached the top of the Pryamid, we did an ancient Aztec tradition of recieving energy from the sun. That was really cool! Needless to say that I today I have been sooooo tired but it was all worth it!
