Mexico City Trip

I have been neglecting our Mexico City facility for far too long (I visited them over 6 years ago). So I spent a week in Mexico with our plant manager and staff. I think I may have mentioned this before but to give you an example of what a dangerous place this is, our plant manager has been held up by gunpoint twice and is ex-wife was kidnapped for ransom once. Luckily it was his ex, so when they demanded a ransom he told them he had no money and they would have to just keep her (they let her go after awhile so it's all good). Despite the reputation, this has to be one of my favorite places in North America to visit, the people are nice, the staff is exceptional and the food is really good. I took a half day and went to see the famous pyramids, they surprised me on how big they are and how well defined the formations are. My pictures don't do it justice, it was really amazing. They figure they were built between 100-600AD, hmmm, fits in nicely with the B of M records.
