San Cristobal

We had a pretty nice overnight bus to San Cristobal in Chiapas. In the morning we rode through some incredible scenery--we climbed higher and higher among green mountains until we were looking down onto a bed of clouds from above. We slept pretty well but still managed to need a nap on our first day there. On this trip we tried to see and do as much as we could while still taking time to relax. San Cristobal is a colonial town with narrow, cobblestone streets. It's a bit touristy and quite a bit rainy, but nice nonetheless.
