Here's what low-key means:
Marty took the pic during the Pumas - America game, which we watched on tv. Ruth said that the reason I fell asleep during the soccer game was because Mexican soccer is so boring nowadays that even the most committed soccer fan falls asleep during a game, but the truth is, I was just really really tired from a busy week and yesterday's travel day.
But before the game, Ruth, Marty and I went out for a simple lunch - comida corrida, literally, lunch on-the-run - at a hole-in-the-wall restaurant in Coyoacán. We shared a salad, ate a few sope's each, a coffee, and a dessert, for about $10, total.
Ruth and Marty's place is amazing. It's a 2-bedroom suite, small, but complete and with a great view of the surrounding mountains, but the real win is the amenities. The building has 3 floors with all kinds of amenities: the first floor, with a yard, playground, internet cafe, indoor swimming pool, sauna, and a gym. Then there's the 14th floor, which is basically a massive entertainment room. It has about a half dozen pool tables, 4 big screen televisions, 4 foosball tables, a couple ping pong tables, I don't know, maybe 20 game-tables, and enough couches to seat close to 100 people. The room's massive, taking up the entire floor! Finally, and most amazingly, on the top floor of the building, the 16th floor, there's an outdoor swimming pool, 5 jacuzzi hot tubs, a bar, couches, and yes, a mini-movie theatre!
All this for about $150K. Hmmm....,
Tomorrow: bicycle day on Reforma Avenue, lunch downtown, and a flamenco show in the evening.
