You may have already been, but two points of interest close to the Buenavista Mall that I recommend are the Vasconcelos Library and, in the opposite direction, the lovely Kiosco Morisco. I love Condesa and Parque Mexico as well...nice to see the paved courtyard with a fresh coat of paint. <br /><br />Off the subject: Where was your profile picture taken? Is that Tajin?<br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8005183909843018870.post-91949120149808184532015-04-13T23:08:03.977-04:002015-04-13T23:08:03.977-04:00We took that train out to the northern suburbs jus...We took that train out to the northern suburbs just for the heck of it.

Spent a little while there while waiting for a train to take us to some godforsaken suburb of DF.
