In Creel

Hello family

Today we were up at 4:30 AM which gave us enough time for a shower, checkout and a taxi ride to the train station. The train (El Chepe) left on time at 0600 and for two hours we went over flat boring landscape. Sometime in the third hour we went through a tunnel over a mile long and when we came out the scenery started changing. Soon we were climbing up into the mountains. Fresh green foliage covered everything and a small river tore down the river bed around numerous large rocks. We could see occasional waterfalls high up on the mountains. Each side of the train would give us good views and we spent quite a bit of time on either side (including outside in the area between the cars).

I am going to upload this now and will add more later. It appears I can't upload photos.Too bad!
