Today was a lot like yesterday, although Alejandro’s father drove the
two of us to a metro station down the line so that saved us about 30
minutes and me a combi ride. Cuatro caminos is nuts during rush hour.
Pastries for breakfast, I need to see if I can buy some tea someplace
for the office. Got to office early, but it probably not a bad thing.
Guisados for lunch, a spicy beef in chile sauce. The guy dishing out the
food knew some English, asked me if I wanted it with cream and cheese,
and if I wanted rice and beans. Ate with Moises today, and took the
metro back with him tonight as far as my second transfer. I’m still
stunned inside the metro with the sheer mass of humanity on the move.
However, it sounds like the metro is under-utilized.
In a city of 22
million, only 3 million use the system on a given day. If you assume
that only a third of the populace is mobile, and has transit needs, then
you’re still looking at less than half of that group
In other news, allergies are still killing me. Hope I’m not allergic to the jacarandas.
