“If patience is worth anything, it must endure to the end of time. And a living faith will last in the midst of the blackest storm.”
Mahatma Gandhi
I hung out in Guadelupe Victoria, then made my way towards Tlaxcala, via some salt flats! It was a weird day riding thru some kind of salt bog, but we made it to Carmen, then after a couple hours, found our place to stay. It was quite the night.
Then we made it towards Huamantla, to visit with friends from last year. My cold came back so I laid low, but also, I gave presentations at a local school.
Then it was off to visit my friends in Apizaco, where I had stayed last year as well. I rested up one day and my cold almost left.
It was nice visiting Gustavo and family in Huamantla and Jessica and family in Apizaco, it felt like being home after a long time away.
