A TRIP TO CHIAPAS PART I

The last December I traveled with some friends to Chiapas by road for a week and half, this trip was an adventure because we let us to know different places and learn about everything that we should anticipate, especially by climate.

We began our trip in Puebla on December 26 at the morning , for our trip we carried to our trunk , four suitcases, four sleeping bags, two tents, one map, a spare tire, an another things.

First we arrived to the city of Veracruz, the sky was taken off, plenty of sunshine, but we had decided not stay long time in that city because we already knew the port.

We had decided to go to Nansiyaga is an ecological reserve very beautiful, where you can take a bath of Temaxcal, mineral mud facial masks, an spiritual cleansing with “The Chaman”.

During our road to the reserve started to rain too hard, we couldn't see the road very well, we were so nervous, but we arrived safely.

We wanted to do camp, but we couldn’t by the bad weather, so we stayed in a cheaper hostel because it still had a long journey to do and we had to spend a little money.

In that place, we took a boat trip on the lake and we visited the reserve but the sky was overcast and it was very windy, ¡we were freezing¡

Our next route was direct to “The Sumidero Canyon”, fortunately the weather favored us and so we took a boat ride through the Canyon and after we went to eat the traditional tamales, very tasty.

We continue our route to “San Cristobal”, in that place we had to stay in a hostel because it was very cold but it was worth, because the city looks very pretty at night.

The next day we traveled to Palenque and we turned to blue waterfalls, ¡it’s really beautiful¡, we swam in to the river, but it's dangerous if swim in the deepest water, you could drown.

We arrived to the ruins of Palenque, a place very impressive , we were fascinated.

In that place .finally we could make our camp, but suddenly begun rains by night, it was horrible, we had to move our tent several times, but it was worth, especially to see the sunrise in the jungle.

We decided continue our trip to “The Lakes of Monte Bello"," The clouds” and another places but it’s another presentation.
