Well I’m trapped in Rome because of the Eyjafjallajökull volcano, maybe one of the best places to be trapped.
Here are some pictures of the airport.
What a usefull tools are skype and iPhone at this situations.
But I had a headache with all this traveling issue, so let’s better move from the airport to the City.
Relax and take it easy.
If you are mexican, for sure you know Prodigy Internet, and the odds are you might already have a username and password.
Well Telmex offers free prodigy internet roaming via tmoblie in USA and some other countries, so when in an airport, or hot-spot, look for that.
PS…yes this post should better be in Spanish.
I have always thought that those Duty and Tax Free are not a good choice to buy any stuff. ..Well Today I have proven my self that they are very expensive:
In the morning I bought a bottle of Tequila Don Julio Añejo in a High-End Supermarket in Mexico, which I’m taking to a friend during this trip. I paid a total of $32.50USD, which includes $2.50USD of Value Added Tax and $10.00USD of Special Liquor Tax.
So the Tequila without taxes was just $20.00USD.
Well, I’m in the airport right now, the same bottle is priced $49.00USD !
OK, they charge no Tax and Duty but they just double the price.
Guanajuato Tunnels
Last weekend I went to Guanajuato.
It’s a small mining city in the state of the same name, it’s been recognized as World Heritage Site by the UNESCO.
The city has a complete network of underground roads. And the main one was originally a river.
On top, there is a very rich architectural collection from the Colonial Spanish era.
Some of the more famouse sites in Guanajuato are:
And one it’s main attractions is the Mummy Museum, but the mummies here were created by a natural mummification process derived from the elements an temperature conditions of the zone.
The city holds many cultural festivals, including the world famous Festival Cervantino, and as a turistical town is full of good places to eat and drink.
