Not sure what this was about. We had a flurry of holidays: Children's Day, Labor Day, Cinco de Mayo, Teachers' Day. All withing around 10 days. And there's an election in July, so a lot of political stuff happening. It has been less than a year since the annual blessing of the taxis occurred in the Zócalo, so it probably wasn't that. Needless to say, I never ride in a cab that hasn't been blessed.
