I just flew back into Mexico City, but I am still in a NY state of mind. I was only gone for a week, but everyday was full of a plethora of activity. I took this picture while lost and walking around the Crystal City indoor maze of shops in northern Virginia. The weather was quite cold in DC, and that is why this mural inspired a pleasant nostalgia for spring. The weather here in Mexico City is spectacular. We have clear skies and a nice sun keeping everyone in the shade. Crystal City residents will have to wait a couple months before their weather reflects the green pastures of this mural. For those unfamiliar with Crystal City, it is a residential and business center community adjacent to the Pentagon, and in more ways than one, reflects the dangers of overplanning a city to death. The city has very little character, and its style leaves more of a Pepto Bismol aftertaste than anything else. Fortunately, for everyone´s sanity, Old Alexandria, a charming colonial town, is only minutes down the road.
