Spring break day 1

Early morning! But things couldn't have went smoother!
We had a great flight to Mexico City. Landed :20 early! 
Got a taxi to our hotel and settled in
We met Mark, Denise, Silas and Merritt for a 3pm lunch/dinner at el cafe Popular.... It was great! 
The kids didn't care where we went, they were just thrilled to be together again!
After we ate we walked to the big square. Easter is a BIG celebration here! We went in the National Cathedral where there was a beautiful palm Sunday mass service going on.
Pipe organ
The square was decorated with very strange skeletons. I did not fully understand the reason but it had something to do with death and Jesus's resurrection.i will have to research this!
Nate was happy to see Street saxophone players in several different places. Merritt was happy to dance for the crowd
Finally we went for dessert. As you can see in this picture my kids were wiped out. The two hour time change had hit us hard! 
Can't wait for more adventures tomorrow! Good night
