Will be glad to have you join us!

I'm leaning on a launch point that takes us through the busy parts...the last get together at Xoci went through the quiet part.

Don't underestimate how long it takes to dock and to pee on the quiet run!

Could I possibly try to meet up at the rally point for MO39 if that happens? My only time in DF has been when I arrived at the airport. I was thinking of hopping the bus from Puebla to MEX, then catching the metro to Tasquena, the take the Tren Ligero (per Lonely Planet's advice) to the launching area.

Well, Guy, melirae could contact you or thelmadatter or this MO30 person, but I (mo39) don't have a clue as to where we're meeting on Saturday!

I don't know where this angel is, but I'll find it and meet you there! What time are we going to meet up at the metro to head down to Xochimilco?

I'm coming in on Friday night if anyone wants to meet for a pre-shindig drink. I'm staying around the zocalo through Sunday. I figure I'll take the Turibus around town that day and scope the place out for future visits.

Ok, how about meeting at Metro Insurgentes, inside the glorieta, at 1 PM? We need to get the metro down to the canals anyway.

One thing here...food can be a little expensive to buy there, so I suggest everyone bring along a little something to eat or snack on. Potluck let's say.

Drinks we can get there at the embarcadero...Leigh, what's the name of the embarcadero we left from last time? Anyone not meeting at metro Insurgentes can meet us there at that same embarcadero around 2?

The area inside the glorieta is rather large. Why don't we meet at the actual entrance to the Metro?

Ok, for anyone not meeting up at 1 PM at metro Insurgentes, we're gathering at Nativitas embarcadero...the big one with the market. If you're not sure where to meet there, PM me for a cel phone number to coordinate.

Sorry...late to post the pics. Was good to see some new faces out there, besides the puppy below.



I love You Tube...makes this so much easier to show things.

That last one has a DF teacher trying to steer the trajinera...no easy task.
