Back In Mexico City!

It's always hard to come back after visiting in Colorado. We all miss our families so much and get a little home sick. But after a week or two we all adjust back to life here.
Since we have been back we have met some really fun and amazing people. We have been eating out at a lot of fun and interesting places. We have gone to two concerts, Diana Krall, she was amazing. We also went to the Jesse and Joy concert, ever since, Marcos has been listening to the cd non stop. But it was an amazing concert as well, Joy has such a powerful and beautiful voice.
The weather is a little dreadful right now. It is very hot and very humid. Walking around for two hours makes you completely exhausted. You feel like you are melting away, it is the most uncomfortable thing to experience.
We have also been doing some more apartment searching. The one we are in right now is really not working for all of us and we absolutley hate the area. I have been looking online a lot and I found these really nice apartments and they were in a nicer area. Luke, Marcos, Lex and I decided to go and check them out. A friend of ours let us take his car so we didnt have to spend money on a taxi. It took us an hour and a half to get there because of all the traffic and when we got to the area the boys told me it was called the Red Light District.. so awful! But Lex still wanted to at least check them out. We found the building and went inside, they directed to the elevator and told us to go to the 4th floor. While we were in the elevator Lex shifted his body weight back and forth and the entire thing started shaking. We got up the elevator alive, thankfully, and decided to take the stairs up to see the apartments. We were waiting for the lady to come and let us in and my husband asked "Well, let's say the apartments are nice." and before he could even finish Luke and I both looked at him and told him that this place was a dump. Surprise, Surprise the apartments were just as awful! We left and headed back to our apartment, which took us another hour. When we arrived the friend that let us take his car had cleaned our apartment :) i love thoughtful people!
