July 23, 2016. Patzcuaro to Albuquerque. Ham and cheese sandwiches 

I earned my advanced degree in Mexican driving today.  I drove through the heart of Mexico City from the west side near Toluca to the airport on the east side.

We woke up around 7:30, and I made six ham, sliced tomato, Oaxacan cheese sandwiches on two tortes and four Kaiser rolls with butter and mayo.

I also sliced a cucumber into spears. We ate sandwiches on the road as we drove.

Then ate the final sandwich on the flight from Mexico City to Houston.

We drove from Patzcuaro on mostly cuota roads to Mexico City.  The last 20 km. took us over1 ½ hours in heavy traffic through Mexico City, ever thought it is a Saturday.

We made it to the airport on time for our flight and then waited an hour because the flight was delayed.

We had a three hour lay over in Houston, so we made our connecting flight.  We  arrived in Albuquerque on time at around 10:10 in the evening.

Bon Appetit
