Riding the Black Top

Saturday I went to famous pyramids in Mexico City, the pyramids were amazing and the weather was great. The shopping was terrific and the company was a blast but the bus rides were indescribable, but I will do my best.

So we take our local bus to Capu (Puebla's bus station), it costs 5 Pesos and takes about 15 to 20 minutes. We arrive at Capu at about 8:00 AM and buy bus tickets to Mexico City North, 120 Pesos, we board the bus and they turn on a movie- Despureix (or however you spell it, the one about mice). I gladly put in my headphones and we are off. As we are nearing Mexico City North (about 2 hours later), I decide I need to use the bathroom. I go in there and as I lock the door the toilet flushes by itself, this wasn't a normal flush though- the water came out from every direction spraying like a fireman hose, a small hole at the bottom of the toilet opens up and everything is suctioned down, the bus at this time is now rocking violently, and I think to myself, "What could be going on?" I was in and out as FAST as POSSIBLE! We arrive in Mexico City North, where we buy tickets to Teotihuacan, a 45 minute, 33 Peso, bus ride. We get on this bus that looks like something out of a movie. It was so old and rickety. Every couple of minutes it would make an unreal noise. "Emily, what do you... " CARAKDFAHJONDJKFSAO. "What do you think.. " SKLANEOASK. Then we stop in the middle of the freeway and pick up about 10 more random people- now people are standing in the isles. One man in the isle has a guitar, he starts playing- Oh wow! After about 1 minute of solo guitar, he starts singing, one minute after that, this lady joins in with him. They start belting it out! I couldn't help but to laugh and film it! We arrive in Teotihuacan, spend 5 or 6 hours there, and then we go out the exit. We don't see much in site, just a guy selling potato chips. We ask where we go to get the bus- He tells us just to wait on this sketchy street- uhhhhhhhhh... Okay! Well, he was right, 10 minutes later, a bus shows up for us and we did it all again- but this time heading back to Puebla, back home!
