Vistas del Globo

These are images we took while above the city and Los Piramides in our Hot Air Balloon Adventure. See our shadow in the left corner of the first image over the Atetelco Ruins nearest to the house on Purificacion, famous for its painted patio ("patio pintado"). It was incredible to see some areas from above the city that have yet to be excavated due to lack of funding.

This is another Globo just above the Pyramid of the Sun. Our globo also went directly over each Pyramid multiple times throughout our flight. This was a pricey venture, although it was absolutely worth it as it seemed to be a once in a lifetime opportunity....and the pilot of our flight confirmed that we actually got a stellar deal compared to prices in the States.
