The ride down to Mexico City was quite pleasant, Temperatures in the 60s and low 70s, sunny, and beautiful scenery. Roads were mostly empty until about 20 miles outside of the City. After the ride in, I went for a short walk through the area around the hotel. I did not get very far before running into about 2,000 police officers. Apparently there is a massive protest planned by the teachers union this evening. You would think the teachers union would be a bit low key, but apparently this is an annual thing, and it gets quite violent.
Expedia had the deal of the day on my hotel. It's a five-star facility, beautiful as can be, normally $550 a night, on sale for $75. Now I know why, free protests. :-)
