We ventured slowly and carefully today into the hilly countryside around the beautiful tourist destination of San Cristobal, which is high up in the mountains (about 7000ft), thankfully far from the oppressive heat of the lower elevations. The roads were actually pretty good, but somewhat curvy and slow going thanks in part to the speed bumps at the entry and exit of the many rural villages we drove through, nasty things that threaten to rip the whole underside of the car if you don't slow to a complete halt and gingerly nudge the car over them. Roadside attractions dotted the countryside, from cheap music and movies to fruit stands to little snack shacks in seemingly every building you drive by.
