The Sprawl

The rain and winds of last week cleared away a lot of the thick, omnipresent pollution of February, Mexico City's version of the winter doldrums. Thus, it was a good day for us to view the city from the sky deck of the earthquake-safe Torre Latinoamericana. We arrived at dusk. It was incredible. In case you were a doubter, this is truly ONE BIG CITY

In this first picture, in the distance, two snow covered mountains are visible! The pointy one is Popocatepetl, an active volcano! They've never been visible to us, before yesterday:
