I wasn’t sure I would get the opportunity to host Sebastian before he starts school. But the stars aligned and he flew as an unaccompanied minor on a direct flight from Seattle. His flight was scheduled to arrive at 5:20 am. So, I chose to spend the night at the Mexico City airport in a capsule!. It felt very strange to climb into a capsule to sleep. I found the bed to be very comfortable and the size worked for me. The drawback was the sound. They give you ear plugs because the capsules are not sound proofed. People are coming and going all during the night and climbing in and out can be noisy. I was also excited because of meeting Sean and this was a new experience for me, so I did not get much sleep.
We took a two-hour bus to Puebla and an Uber to our Air BnB. Sebastian slept the entire bus ride and flopped on the bed before unpacking!

The first thing I noticed about Puebla is that they have traffic signals, wide sidewalks, and no cobblestone streets! So walking around is much easier!
The first place we went, of course, is the Zocalo: the local gathering place for locals and visitors alike. The fountain, the church, the vendors, the eating places!
Shopping!

Churrería: our new favorite where we get between 7 and 9 churros for $20 (about 1 USD)
We attempted to go see a movie and were thwarted on two counts: all the movies are in Spanish, and we couldn’t figure out the busses (none of the names matched what Google Maps told us).
Puebla, formally Heroica Puelbla de Zaragoza, and also known as Puebla de los Ángeles, has a lot of Spanish influence visible in the beautiful architecture. In addition, there is French influence here, too.
