Mexico City Temple and Pyramids

We Loved our visit to the Mexico City Temple.  I think it has the most visible  native influence of any of the temples I have visited.  I love it.  Also, it's Moroni statue is one of only 5 that is carrying the plates in his arm. 



Alex is a photographer and was shooting a wedding while we were there.

We planned to do a session after the wedding, but it took so long that that Rod and I just went in and did sealings.  I loved doing them in Spanish.  By the time we were done, it was rather late, about 3 pm, and Rod hadn't eaten so we went across the street and ate tortas from a stand there. 

 Notice the names of the sandwiches on the left.   We asked, and no one on staff was a member of the church.  Just some informed marketing. They were very tasty, but we paid for eating street food. We all had a bit of 'Montezuma's revenge'.  Mine was worst.  Luckily Sister Flores had some antibiotics and we got it cleared up.

We enjoyed walking around the town.

We came across this dancer.  She was doing a photo shoot by an old house.

Some strange sculpture.

 

A colorful sculpture at a playground.

Cool huh

Yup! That handsome man remembered and had roses for our anniversary!  How did I get such a great guy? Sister Flores made the cute poster.  I almost ruined the surprise when I walked in as she was making it the night before.

 

 Our last day, they took us to see the pyramids.  The weather was perfect.  They even paid for a guide for us! It was fascinating.  They showed us how sound echos from one side to the other.  There were decorations, and they were painted.  Amazing!

Super Man

We climbed lots of steps.

The men folk went all the way.  I rested.

The breathtaking view!

We had such a great time.  These are great men.  We are so blessed to know them and be part of their lives.
