    update on my dad:

    It has been a totally surreal experience for me, but nothing compared to what he must be going through. There are about 10 family members that are with him right now including my brother and sister. My sister was telling me that he is a little overwhelmed/scared by being outside on the street. Mexico City is a massive metropolis and he doesn't know it that well, he is from the north.

    They were shopping this evening because he really doesn't have a wardrobe at all. He has been wearing Beige for at least 25 years. No other color but Beige! So today he was wearing a bright red flannel in the last picture i saw. I'm sure he will never touch another beige piece of clothing again.

    today they also visited his apartment in the city where he will live and make his studio. it has great light and is in a good neighborhood too.
