Some pictures from Mexico City

Some pictures from Mexico City 01/07/2004 04:22 PM

http: //www.photo.net/philg/digiphotos/200311-mexico-city/ contains some snapshots from the recent trip to Mexico City.  I'm trying to travel light these days, which means no laptop and no camera.  For this trip I borrowed a Casio Exilim EX-Z3, a truly tiny 3 MP camera.  As you can see the results are fairly dismal.  I attribute the poor results to the lack of a decent viewfinder in point and shoot cameras.  You can't see what you're photographing.  The little viewfinder window is tiny on the Casio and highly inaccurate.  You don't know whether or not the camera has focussed properly.  Plus of course there are a lot of weird modes in which you can get the camera.

On the plus side the Casio is only about the size of a Palm organizer and barely heavier so you truly can take it with you everywhere.  I don't think I'll buy one, though.  The smallest Canons are larger but seem less compromised as photographic machines.

Things to love about Mexico City

Things to love about Mexico City 01/07/2004 04:24 PM

Like Los Angeles Mexico City is blessed with a near-perfect natural environment.  It is almost always a pleasant temperature outside and usually sunny.  And like Los Angeles the city has nearly ruined itself with growth that led to sprawl that led to traffic that led to smog.  Fundamentally, however, it is tough to wreck paradise.  Homes, art museums, restaurants can all be open to the air outside without even bothering with screens as there are few insects up at this high elevation.  You don't have to be a prisoner in your house against hot, cold, or mosquito-infested weather.

Besides this fundamental enabler there are the standard tourist things to love, i.e., great museums, spectacular public art and architecture, lively streets, lots of music, and cheerful people.

Going to public school in the 1970s in the U.S. we were taught to fear three things:  Communism, drugs, and Mexico.  If you're still carrying a lingering fear of Mexico it shouldn't stop you from spending at least 4 or 5 days here in Mexico City just once in your life.

Mexico City ideas? (leaving tomorrow) 01/07/2004 04:26 PM

MIT is having a holiday on Monday and Tuesday and the Boston weather forecast is unappealing.... good excuses for hopping a plane to Mexico City.  I've never been there before and would appreciate comments on where to stay and what to see.  My main interests are Pre-Columbian history and artifacts, soaking up the lifestyle, and modern architecture.  I'll be alone.

[In case you're curious, I'm not taking my own airplane down to Mexico.At 150 mph it would take roughly 16 hours to cover the 2000 nautical mile distance.  I have taken the plane into Baja, Mexico and wrote up the experience in http://philip.greenspun .com/flying/baja]

The origins of the term "inside baseball" are in one writer's view of sports reporting during the 1980s. He's Bill James, now a famous scholar of baseball. The arguments he made then explain why the term migrated so easily to politics. The inside, said James, is a hall of mirrors.
