Well 5:45 came pretty early!   But we both got everything done in time to go down to breakfast a bit early.   There is a huge buffet with lots of things I can’t identify but sample and love!   There is coffee, hot tea, and hot chocolate to drink and I’m starting slowly with hot tea.   Tomorrow, though, it’s gonna be hot chocolate for sure! View from our room We finish breakfast, head upstairs for a few moments, and regroup in the lobby at 8:30 to start our day.   First stop is the National Anthropology Museum.   We get there by van and get a chance to see some more of the city. The museum is so brilliantly designed that, although it was built in the 1960s, it still looks quite modern.   It utilizes a lot of natural light and has many ways to get to the outside, unlike most museums which feel a bit claustrophobic.   The architect said that there should actually be five individuals involved in the design, each a leader in his field, for example, landscape design.
