Day 2 - A smaller staging area, all seats filled, some even sitting on the floor in front of the raised stage. The camera crew is filming, smart phones are flashing

these young ladies won a contest to have 'time with Ron', to ask me questions, look at their portfolios and just chat:)
They are holding lanyards designed by my son Jai. I usually give them away at book signings but this was a special occasion.

I was exposed to some outstanding history, monuments, sculpture and culture. Mexico City is beautiful and I really enjoyed my visit.
