Dawn arrives cold and clear over Teotihuacán, and the balloon’s envelope inflates like a sleeping giant waking to stretch. From the basket you drift above the Avenue of the Dead; the pyramids of the Sun and Moon push through the morning haze while the flat basin below slowly brightens. The air itself seems to pull you forward, carrying the scent of mesquite and the distant calls of birds.
