Let's say I'm lazy and I copy (forgive me XD) from Angel Hitomi's report the notion by notion report of the visit to the Anthropology Museum:
The museum was huge, about 26 exhibition rooms divided into: Introduction to Anthropology, Introduction to Mesoamerica, origins, central plateau pre-classical period, Teotihuacan, Toltecs, Mexica, Oaxaca, Gulf Of Mexico, Maya, North, West and etnograph(…). Among the most famous items : The Stone Of Sun (Aztec Calendar), that long time ago was put on a platform alf way to the top of the Great Pyramid of the capital Tenochtitlàn, full of cosmogonic symbols, and used to foresee eclipses of the Sun. Statues, altars for sacrifices, depictions of gods like Quezalcoatl, god of water, and many other.
After the neverending visit (interesting, but neverending *_*) it's now 3:00pm and we wait for Daniel to come and pick us up under a burning Sun.
Meanwhile we see some sort of a stunt show, while a squirrel gets close carefully to us, biting a nut.
In the evening something completely different was waiting for us.
Paula asked us to be in cosplay for the introduction of "Kosupure", a new magazine that her and Mario are publishing.
Laura and I are the main course on issue #1, with personal data, interviews and, for me, even the centerfold ç_ç!
This presentation takes place very far from our hotel… we could even say we came across the whole Mexico City, that, thanks to its 22 million of citizens, is not properly a small town, to go to some sort of a Japan related and Japan style club where fans and friends are waiting for us.
This time I'm wearing Mai Shiranui's costume, while Laura is Chii from Chobits and Paula introduce the mini conference as Chun Li black version.
But the main guest is soon revealed to be a smart Japanese old lady, who teaches Japanese in some university of the neighborhoods.
She shows us live a practical example of how to wear a kimono, choosing Hitomi as her model.
The reason for the choice is soon said again and again; but for sympathy towards Laura I'm not repeating it, it would be useless as the whole Mexico knows it already XD! |
