Mountain Climbing

Yesterday we took a tourist bus to Monte Alban. It is such a remarkable archeological site, because it is at the top of a mountain. The vistas are incredible.

We chose the coolest day this week (the only day when the highs weren't 90), so there were clouds and breezes.

Little E loved the site, running all up and down every staircase he could find. While I was nowhere near as quick, I was really proud of my ability to climb quickly without getting too winded.

When we visited 10 years ago, I was in the depths of undiagnosed low thyroid, and I remember just crawling up the pyramid, and crashing at the top, sitting for a long time to recover and feeling wrecked.

Maybe my dream of climbing a mountain is possible!!
