Mexico City; COOL place

We our flights to PE were going really well until we had our 9 hour layover in Mexico City.

Now Mexico is known for it's warm weather and sunny destinations, what we didn't know is that Mexico City is also a cool destination, cool as in COLD. The reported temperature for the night we spent at the airport was 2 degrees celcius. The people there had toques, mitts, winter coats and even winter boots on! Central heat in Mexico City is either not turned on or is not in existence at all! We Froze.

To keep warm, we dug our beach towels out of the suitcases, put on our coats, all of them, and hunkered down, kind of like camping on the May long!

Once 4:00 am came around, the airport started really hopping, people catching flights to their own vacations, unfortunately our flight didn't leave until 9:00 am. We were tired, cold, and we looked like 2 homeless Canadians. If I had put a ball cap and a sign on the ground, I'm sure we could have made some money for vacation.
