We left Cuernavaca yesterday and made our way through the mountains on roads that were 'sinuoso' to say the least. The scenery was spectacular. These roads are made for motorcycles and people who would dream of flying. We found the huge church above in the middle of the countryside an hour or so north of the incredible city of Oaxaca in southern Mexico. After locating a place for our bikes and us to spend the night, we went to the zocolo and found a table on the plaza. There we enjoyed watching people, listing to local music, and drinking a couple beers. Landon had beef tips and Sean and I had chicken with Oaxacan mole. Wonderful. Landon managed to find a wireless connection on his mini laptop and call home on Skype for 2 cents a minute.

Today we plan to visit Monte Alban and Mitla, both ruins in this area, and ride more or less halfway to San Cristobal de las Casas in Chiapas. We should hit the border with Guatamala by Wednesday evening or Thursday morning. All is well.
