Tula de Allende

Back to climbing means less time for photos 😅

As we arrived after 18.00pm in Jilotepec we couldn't camp next to the climbing sector as we intended to because the gate was already closed. Turned out to be a good thing as we had to look for another sleeping place and found one of the best and cheapest campgrounds so far. Peaceful, quiet, scenic view, huge kitchen, warm showers, wifi and much more for 5CHF per night!! Raúl (owner of the camping) and his family were incredibly welcoming and helpful. It was a pleasure to meet them and we were happy to celebrate the last night with a delicious spanish tortilla (made by Vini & me😉) and some fernet 😋.
After a 2 weeks break we were happy to go back to climbing and were surprised we didn't feel that bad after all (maybe the training on the 🌵helped? 😂). The first days we got really tired, probably also because of the altitude (2700 m). On the weekend many climbers from Mexico City arrived and we were happy to meet our friends we had met previously in Red River Gorge 🇺🇸 and el Salto 🇲🇽.
Of course we also met new people - a french/mexican climber couple living in 🇫🇷 (hope to see them back in europe) and an older french couple, travelling to Patagonia with their van as we do. Always good to share some tips and stories!

Thanks also to Héctor our private climbing and gourmet guide😋 who was staying with us at "La Burbuja" and taking care of the campground.

Almost forget to mention that our van got a good maintenance and now works better than ever. And Leki got a rabies vaccine update (we discovered that in central america they only accept the 1 year vaccine and not the 3 year vaccine from europe) and an anti flea/ticks/worms pill from the vet. Now we are ready to drive south😎

PS. all the locals love to take pictures with us. Doesn't matter if you go to a restaurant or the mechanics, they all want to take a picture with you. Czytaj więcej
