... no such thing as perfect), ups, downs and sweeping bends.<br>The countryside is back to mainly trees and bushes with the odd small plot of cultivation, plenty of towns and speed bumps and several off road diversions for road works - and it really is off road, no room for low cars and spoilers here!<br>As on other mornings in the roadside cafes and I suppose houses, I watched mainly but not entirely the senoras making their ...

... Spiels dem Sonnengott geopf**t. In d** Anlage findet sich auss**dem auch ein astronomisches Obs**vatorium, das die Zapoteken für die B**echnung ihres 260-Tage umfassenden Kalend**system benützten. Am Nachmittag machten wir uns dann auf den Weg durch die Si**ra Madre del Sur zum 600km entf**nten San Cristobal de Las Casas. Dabei üb**nachteten wir jedoch auf halb** Strecke in Zanatepec, mitten im Urwald.

... decorations on the intact roofs....this was the home of Pakal one of the greatest kings, we saw the exquisite sculptured sarcophagus in the museum.......it weighed 10 tons. We moved to private buses as gave us flexibility to stop a waterfalls en route to San Crisobal. We went swimming at Agua Azul falls which was special as something we haven't done before. San Crisobal was very cold indeed as in the mountains, so chose to do horse riding ...

... of buisnesses, since traffic slows merchants sell anything from fruit to cold drinks. Some will stand in the middle of the lanes to reach both drivers of the traffic. It also seems the place to catch a ride, or just watch traffic as the continuing circus of vehicles and unaware drivers parade by. You become accustomed to watching out for the reductors in a way I have never have looked for anything else on the ...

It was quite funny arriving there so late, everyone just coming to us so drunk and talking to us and then after one hour seeing them sleeping outside. This time has not much apart from good hot dogs, we went to eat them at a stand where they were showing a Mexican boxing game, and i had to stasy the whole 11 rounds and cheer up with the locals...

... formed by sediment deposited over the years. We spotted a couple of crocs on the way home, the driver floated us right up to within a couple of meters of one "statue" sunning itself on some driftwood. Some of the people including Larry couldn't see it, but as soon as he got a sniff of it he tried to climb out the other side of the boat. After the tour and lunch our little convoy of 3 headed through the city of Tuxla Guiterrez and after ...

... and there was his wife and she said she was Darinel´s wife, and his brother looked like him too. Then we had to find Galacion´s sister, but he had no idea where she was and she wasn´t answering the phone. So we called back to the States to Javier for him to call Marilu and then we did finally find them. We slept there that night.

... was perfect, and the family couldn´t have been more generous or laidback. Sometimes I am completely bewildered at how lucky I am, at how easy my life is, at the amount of abundance, love and joy I always seems to encounter...there are members of my own family who have lives with so much more pain, trials and tribulations, not to mention the millions of people in this world who are barely surviving, lacking water, food, shelter, and ...
