Get Outta Town - Mexico City, Mexico

Barbara meets her Mexico City co-host, Vanessa, a student and soccer star, at UNAM National University, the biggest university in Latin America.

Since soccer is Vanessas passion, she says by the end of the day, after some coaching, she wants Barb to try to score a goal. Barb and Vanessa tour the huge campuss concert halls and library before they find themselves at the stadium, the schools centerpiece, due to Mexicos love for the game of soccer.

Vanessa decides to show Barb the city by taking a boat ride through the canal, complete with a Mariachi band on deck! Back on land, Barb and Vanessa walk to San Angel a market and bazaar where they try on some flamenco dresses and learn a couple dance moves. Vanessa wants to teach Barb some of her favourite moves, so they head to Rapido Field, where Barb gets put through various soccer drills.

After all that exercise, Barb wants to slow down and see some of Diego Riveras artwork in his studio and at the house he shared with another famous Mexican artist, Frida Kahlo. Vanessa and Barb stop to eat some traditional Mexican food at a nearby cantina before viewing some more artwork, this time by Dolores Olmedo. The girls stop at Plaza Loreto, a mall with colonial decoration and outdoor shops, and Barb picks up a Mexico soccer jersey. To get her even more psyched up for her challenge, Vanessa shows Barb the Aztec Stadium Mexicos biggest soccer stadium. Barbara is slightly overwhelmed by its enormous size but, not to worry, this isnt the field shell be playing on.

The girls head to a field at the TEC de Monterrey Campus to meet Vanessas teammates; Barb slips on her cleats and shoots a soccer ball at a goalie in a net. SCORE! The team does a victory lap with Barb on their shoulders, then head to fiesta a party complete with traditional foods, dancing clothing and, best of all, a filled with candy!
