San Andrés Solaga


     On November 12th 2012, my mom and I went to San Andrés Solaga .  San Andrés Solaga is a pueblo in Sierra Norte and has only 1,600 people.   The Sierra Norte is a region in the state of Oaxaca, Mexico. 
    We went there because my mom was taking photos of a workshop for high school students.
    The bus we took was a second class bus with no restroom on board. It took about 4 hours each way.  The veeeery road was bumpy and curvy through the high mountains! 
In Solaga I liked seeing a little baby sheep who nibbled on my pinky and a shepherd dog who came to check on his sheep when they were bleating.  Their bleating sounded like the word "baaaaaad."
The one thing I did not like was how cold it was in the night and we barely had any blankets.  
It was a great adventure!

This is me walking next to the town iglesia (church in Spanish)
