This weekend, I’m just going to take some time off and travel to Mexico City for the night. We had the opportunity to visit tourist destinations including the Chapultepec Castle, El Palacio de Bellos Arte, and artisan markets. I had a nice weekend and I had the chance to travel and enjoy a variety of delicious foods.
