Mexico City- Floating gardens
Xochimilco – today it is the only part of Mexico City still to have the canals and semi-floating flower and vegetable gardens. Popular place to spend the weekend with your family on one of the rented punts, which have a roof and a table down the middle.
On the first pictures there are children toys found from the canals and nailed to the trees. There was one man who collected them this way, which reminds me Polish contemporary art exhibition I saw in Tallinn Art Hall twenty years ago, although the installation was kind of spooky I was deeply impressed.
As July is endless birthday-season in our family, then in between of arranging parties I will post about Mexico City.
