More photos from Oaxaca

I am in Panama now and have much to say about my time so far. But before i get to that, i want to post more photos from my time in the state of Oaxaca. I have some for certain people but i hope anyone who checks out the blog finds something to enjoy!

The last few days before i left Oaxaca i was lucky enough to visit the ruins of Mitla and the beautiful site of Hierve el Agua (natural rock formations that look like waterfalls and are created by fresh water springs) with one of my favorite Oaxaqueños.

One of my favorite pics from Mitla:
Here is Hierve el Agua:
This one is for the Brother, i took it at Monte Alban. Other photos from the ruins are below but as i was composing this one i thought of him.
This is one of my favorite little side streets in Oaxaca, I walked up or down it at least once a day.
This one is for the Mover-Shaker in Chicago...you know why i am posting this, sorry it took so long to send to you! Oh and it is on the above street!


This is another favorite street that i walked along. These are 'los arcos' part of an old aquaduct system into the city. Loved loved loved this street.
One of my favorites from Monte Alban. I was sitting on the tops steps of one of the ruins as the clouds rolled by, i loved the light and dark at the same moment.
This one is for the Candidate...This one is for my Ukrainian friends who specifically asked for street pics...more to come i promise!!

This one is for the Family. Spending the night in the airport is no fun, especially since you are there because you are denied entry into a country (more on that in a later post). As i worked to regain my composure and maintain my sanity in the Mexico City airport, one of the things i did was go to this little anthropological museum in the airport. It was actually quite interesting and a great way to pass the time.
