I want to tell you a little bit about your first trip to Teotihuacan, and the first to any pyramids in Mexico.
After leaving Mexico City, we too the road to the pyramids, which goes through Ecatepec and Acolman. It was on December 31, 2006, on the final hours of the year. We arrived to Teotihuacan around noon. Once we were there, we prepared you to go out, with your warm clothes and us putting the kangaroo carrier.
At first your mommy was carrying you, when we entered into the ancient and desserted city. We saw the pyramids at far, so I told your mother that I should be the one carrying you in the kangaroo carrier. So I put it, and put you inside, with your face towards me.
At some moments you were crying, but then you got tired, and fell asleep. We continued walking and exploring palaces with you in my belly. You were wearing your red cap we bought you in San Juan del Rio, so you wouldn't get any cold air bother you. And we kept walking until we reached the base of the pyramids. Well, not exactly the base, because your mommy was tired. But it was pretty near.
Over there we took pictures. Then your mommy carried you, because I went up to the pyramid top. You stayed with your mommy in a small pyramid eating.
The following day, we noticed that your cheeks were red as strong blushes. Only that we discovered they weren't blushes, but sun burn. Apparently your delicate light skin got burned under the Sun of Teotihuacan. This has been the first this has ever happened to you. I don't know if this will happen to you again when you grow up. But now we know you have delicate skin to take care of whenever we are again doing any trip in the outdoors.
