Calm in the Clouds

Boarding a coach that raced through the night, we have arrived in the cool, calm, colourful, cloud-level, coffee-scented town of San Cristobal de las Casas. Despite being a bit of a traveller town it still has the air of an isolated, indigenous, mountain community. Its climate allows everyone to keep exact opposite hours to the nocturnal Vercruzians. After puffing up to hilltop churches today, it seems a horizontal night at much less than 90 miles an hour is overdue. Before we head further afield tomorrow.
