Hola from Mexico City! The weather in Oaxaca was much better in the low 80's and sunny. Mexico City is a high of 75 and partial clouds today. I've had terrible wifi service and didn't pay for much data so I've a little out of touch! Spanish language update: it's still terrible but more people can understand my accent. :) and I can read and understand much more. But it's just the tip of the iceberg. Let the stone shopping frenzy commence! I went a little heart crazy so far. But people love heart shaped stones and I found some great ones! Include meteor and pyrite! I'm sort of on a pyrite kick! Pyrite is fools gold and can be in the rough nugget form or highly polished. It looks great with lapis lazuli! And a bought a lovely very different labradorite! Will post fotos on the Steel and Stones Facebook page in a day or two. I picked the hotel last night because the lobby looked really interesting in an old was once beautiful kind of way. It was $11.
