Dear Grandma,
This last Saturday we took about an hour bus ride from downtown Merida and went hiking in a region called La Culata. We climbed this rock on our way up, and then had lunch next to a little stream. It sprinkled a little, but for the most part the weather stayed pleasant; the clouds kept it from getting to hot. It was quite the adventure, and as you can see, the scenery was pretty spectactular too. I hope everything is well there at home.
You're in my prayers, Eben
