This was supposed to be a quick trip - fly down Wednesday morning, fly home Thursday afternoon. That changed before I even checked into the hotel.
In our Wednesday meeting with SAT, the Mexican tax authority, it was decided that I would stay for an SAT technical workshop on the construction of facturas electrónicas, the XML tax documents that will be implemented with our PEMEX e-commerce integration.
Unfortunately, that workshop ran until 7pm tonight, so I'm flying home tomorrow (Saturday) on the 6:50 am flight. That also means I have to leave the hotel at 5 am. This will be a short post.
In a nutshell, the trip has been fine. I didn't learn much new in the workshop, but I confirmed what I thought I knew. And the meeting was in far south Mexico City, a part of town I'd not seen before. So I've got that going for me.
That really pointy peak way far away in the middle of this picture? That is a dormant volcano. With my luck, I don't need to be getting close to that sucker.
This was lunch today, just before the workshop. An American eating lunch in a Japanese restaurant in Mexico is just... wrong.
Well, time to catch a couple of zzzz's before it is time to leave for the airport. 5:00 am will be here soon.
Maybe the next post will NOT be from Mexico City.
