El Camaron, Mexico, 14/1-2007
Route: Puebla - Tehuacan - Monte Alban - Oaxcaca - El Camaron
I started the day by cleaning the air filter of Scotty in our own garage. It was a bit dirty and since we are in a thin air, I thought it would be a good idea to have a check how it looked. If I only met a girl as dirty!
Then I headed toward Monte Alban. This is also some famous ruins, that area located on the top of a mountain where it is no water. I think it was a couple of kilometers to the nearest river so it is quite impressive that they made a town so far from the water.
On the trip to Monte Alban the senery changes a lot. In the beginning it is mostly agriculture landscape.
Then the mountains start, with steep wallys. I think the top of the road must be close to 3000 m and here again the landscape is flat. Here I met Jamie, which was out riding his Harley.
Then the I started to ride down again. Here it is forrest where it is water, and yellow grass covered hills where it is little water.
The Monte Alban seems like nothing special when you get there, but when you get up and see what have been made there it is just magnificent. I spent a couple of hours here before I stared toward the Golf of Tehuantepec.

Hello Elisa.
I had my first day of rain today. Not much, but the road was wet, but then I was in a rain forest also then. Thanks for dropping by.
