Today we went to La Biblioteca Vasconcelos, the coolest library I have EVER seen. I'm sure you're thinking a library can only be so cool, but this one really is the cream of the crop.

It was pretty good and I was glad to have something other than a PB&J for a change. Something MEXICAN. Once the rain stopped I walked home to Condesa with the other Ben and then proceeded to do what I do every night: get on my computer. Sometimes my life is so predictable...
