Maria is historian and she was very excited.  We saw a lot of great sculptures and sacred paintings. It was awesome!]]> 2021-02-04 23:26:44 UTC https://padlet.com/actingohms/bnqfi3skrwb2nc1h/wish/1166440886 actingohms https://padlet.com/actingohms/bnqfi3skrwb2nc1h/wish/1166462124 At the afternoon, we ate at El rey del pavo (The turkey king), a traditional restaurant in Mexico City's downtown that opened in 1910.
