15th February '09

Got up this morning at 6 so we could see sunrise over the valley. Very beautiful! And it brings back so many memories of doing exactly that almost every day for 6 months. Then the artillery started – there’s an army range on the mountain the other side of the valley…

And there was smoke in the valley, too; the grass is so dry at this time of year that there are spontaneous fires, one of which was covering the whole valley and the pyramids.

Walking through Teotihuacan, climbing the pyramids of the Sun and Moon (thank heavens for the stairs in San Miguel); wandering and taking photos of us all in various Tai Chi postures (can’t take a Tai Chi player anywhere without them spontaneously posturing); buying souvenir T shirts… Bliss! On the Pyramid of the Moon I did a round of wobbly 5 Section Tai Chi – look for it on our YouTube site! It’s very bumpy and was difficult to keep my footing, as you’ll see in a couple of places.

We’re now back for lunch, maybe a siesta, then up the hill to the Kalihuey (long house, which I helped build), and even higher to the Sundance circle.
