In the morning she arrived with mother by car, picked me up and went back to home. There was waiting her sister Vikus and Fernando (good friend of family). This day Fernando was driving car. So we took car and went to pyramids...
Way was very interesting, because I could see mountains all around the highway and after 1-1.5 hours driving we arrived to Teotihuacan. When I saw far away pyramide, I was soo happy that finally I will watch them in reality not in the postcard.


We arrived to the place and second thing what I saw was kiosks with souvenirs where sombreras cost only 1 USD.
We climbed to the pyramide de Lunes, what was not so easy, because stairs on pyramid was high and pyramid by itself is very high. Next view from the top I cannot describe, you should see and feel it.


When we made thousands of photos we went down to walk further and climb to pyramide de Sol (Sun), which can be seen on pictures above.
During way to pyramide de Sol, we climbed to ruins and also to small piramids, as well I bought new t-shirt with Mexico and picture of pyramids.

Pyramide de Sol was opened only partly, top part was closed for climbing, but it didn´t disturbed to enjoy dream view to buildings of Teotihuacan civilization.
After watching piramids I was going to buy souvenirs from sellers, who was everywhere. Firstly I entered kiosks to watch what can they propose and when I was buying postcard, I saw ... latvian money

Then I was buying souvenirs from sellers in the street and it was very interesting process, because I look like foreigner and prices of course they put very high, but I was bargaining and could decrease price very almost twice. For 1 thing I bargain price from 200 pesos to 65 pesos and everything in spanish.
In that place there are very many cactuses and very big one. Here you understand why we say that Mexico is cactus country.
We finished our trip and went to eat. And then I recognized that sun during the day was pretty strong and I got a it sunburned.
After Teotihuacan we went to my ¨second home¨, where we with family and family friends (aprox. 12 people) were drinking beer (a lot of it) and talking in spanish, good that there were people who talked english and could help me with translation. Day finished at 4 am, when father brought me home.
