If you’re looking for a great place to visit in Mexico City, and you’ve got a sweet tooth, you should definitely check out Churrería El Moro in downtown Mexico City. It’s on Lazaro Cardenas, also known as Eje Central, and the place is full of history.
It was established in 1935, and they sell churros and chocolate. In case you didn’t know, chocolate is from Mexico. So, the chocolate at El Moro is world famous. And the churros are delicious, too. They cost 3 pesos each, which is a great price for such a delicious snack. You can get a combo of chocolate and churros for a little more than 40 pesos.
So, if you’re visiting Mexico City, you should definitely take some time to go to Churrería El Moro.
I took some time to search for some images on Flickr that could be used for powerpoint backgrounds for Easter. If you like them, click the picture, and it will take you to the page on flickr where you can download the image in a variety of sizes.
Today was the last day of class in Mexico, and the beginning of Holy Week. It’s what Americans would call Spring Break, and the Secretary of Tourism estimates that 25% of all Mexicans will travel during the two week vacation time.
The economic impact of the vacation period is estimated to be 2,875,000 dollars, and the places most visited during this time are, of course, the beaches. More than 25 million Mexicans will be traveling to Acapulco, Cancún, Puerto Vallarta, and Veracruz. The major cities are also places that people visit during this time of year.
As for us, we’ll be staying home. I’ll be grading papers, even though there are no classes at the seminary. There are some youth activities going on (camps and retreats) that our students will be participating in, and they’ll be promoting the youth ministry program, too.
I’m hoping to get to be a tourist in the city a few days, since there should be about 7 million fewer people around during these two weeks.
