The Cactus Trip Diaries

The cold mentioned yesterday hits fast and overnight I woke up with the feeling of raizorblades in my throat. During the day I developed a raised temperature, slowing me down, just taking three pictures  at the Best Western in Colima. Chris and Jonathan’s room had a small balcony from which you could observe the volcano that had been in the news due to its recent explosion. It was far away and difficult to see through the haze and volcanic output.

None of us had the energy to get closer, with our cold dulling our enthusiasm and with cactus habitats tempting us away.

What we saw was a good deal less spectacular than yesterday’s image from the internet.
