Sightseeing in Downtown Puebla

Sightseeing in Downtown Puebla

The Zocalo or City Center of downtown Puebla, Mexico has a lot to offer.  For starters this colonial city is colorful and feels almost European at times, plus it has an entire street filled with candy shops.

Running Errands in Puebla

Either the Smallest Volcano OR Largest Geyser - Puebla, Mexico

We visited a cool spot in Puebla called Cuexcomate. Cuexcomate stands 13 meters tall and is debated to either be the smallest volcano or the largest geyser on the planet. Either way, it was a very cool stop and we'd recommend it.

Get in Shape Sundays - Mexico City

I woke up early on Sunday AM so I could get a run in before the family got up and about. When I looked out the window I saw a very long and large pack of runners. What I soon found out really impressed me.

Fun & Exhaustion in Mexico City

Fun & Exhaustion in Mexico City

I've been wanting to go to Mexico City since I was in college.  The size and scale of the city have always fascinated me so when planning our route through Mexico I knew we'd need to stay a few days here. We did our best to cram a lot in during our stay...it was exhausting.
