What do you know - you know nothing!
... so is fairly new and uses water from the mountains, so we were told not to use the streams to wash etc. It is quite hard to resist touching the icey clear streams but I know something so I won't. Today was beautiful so the ranger reccommended we get walking, so we took the shorter condor and eagle walks. It is beyond magnificient here! Gorgeous! I am wandering why we planned on doing anything else this trip. We may stay here for the rest of the year. Very happy, such a lovely ...
