La Tranquilidad Continua..

As soon as I can hook up my own trusty blogging machine to some wi-fi, I´ll post a better update. In the meantime, the NY Times´accounts of the decline in panic in Mexico City are surprisingly accurate to our area as well. Hardly anyone is wearing a mask anymore. Also, last night, Sunday night, there were more people out in the square than we have seen in over a month - just an insane number of people. We guess cabin fever probably got to them... plus, all of the cafes and bars are closed, so where else are you going to go but outside, right?

Also, I love, love, love this article about the flu. It features a photo from this guy´s blog, which is just, well, perfect humor for a country that celebrates a day of the dead. Classic Mexico.

And now, we are diligently preparing for the arrival of our dear friends tomorrow afternoon... Expect great pictures soon! :)
