While in Mexico, Grandmaster St. James, Senior Master Rivera, Professor Reyna, and assistants traveled around Mexico City, which is the World's largest city. As special guests, they stayed
in the small town of San Juan Teotihuacan which was within walking distance of the archeological zone that houses the ancient Aztec pyramids of Teotihuacan.

The group was in awe of the monuments and art at the archeological zone. In addition to the Citadel, the Temple of Quetzalcoatl and the Avenue of the Dead, the delegation team walked the same path as the ancient Aztec warriors did so many years ago.

One of the highlights of the trip was when the group climbed the famous Pyramid of the Sun. In the distance they could see the Pyramid of the Moon and other awe inspiring monuments.

Most of all, Grandmaster St. James and Senior Master Rivera were impressed with the people they met and the hospitality they enjoyed and look forward to future trips.
