Frozen Waterfalls

We bypassed Oaxaca city and headed east, with an infuriating stop at a shopping complex where I managed the lose the parking ticket and we had to pay a whopping 7 dollars fine!

We arrived at Hierve el Agua, which translates to 'boil the water' but were a little disappointed that the pools were cold! Still the view from where we camped, looking down onto the pools and cascades of mineral deposits was unbelievable. We spent a lazy afternoon exploring and soaking, then sunk a few beers as the sun set amongst the mountains.

We even had a little camp fire perched on the cliff edge, cooked some amazing burgers and had a lovely night chatting with the young French couple in the van next door. This reminded us of American wilderness camping and its not something we've done a lot of since we left the Baja. What a blissful place.もっと詳しく
