During the week of Christmas I've been on a break, a regular thing to do in the US around Christmas and New Years to celebrate the end of the year with family and friends.
In my case this was in Mexico, to spend some quality time with Rosario, in both Acapulco and Mexico City. Great to explore the land of Guacamole, Taco's and nice and warm weather! Acapulco is a holiday paradise on the west coast, that has developed over the years around a beautiful bay. If you are planning to go, we highly recommend the restaurant Becco al Mare, a fantastic Italian restaurant with stunning views over the bay and a wine list to dream of...
Acapulco
Mexico City is a monstrous big city with wonderful parts and darker sides, often right next to each other. Traffic is horrible, El Periferico is stuck almost every day, except on Christmas Day, so we took advantage to discover the city that day.
We had a wonderful Christmas diner with Rosario's family in La Hacienda de los Morales, an old Hacienda that wasn't part of the city when built, but is now almost in the middle of it, in the Palenco neighborhood, one of the more green and nicer areas in the city. Next to celebrating Christmas and sightseeing we met lots of Rosario's friends and family, a lot of times in combination with having lunch or diner. Getting together in Mexico means that there will be food, music and dance waiting for you around the corner, 3 important parts of Mexican culture...I super enjoyed!!
