Here are some images from my New Year's trip to Real De Catorce! it's in the interior of Mexico, in the mountains near Matehuala. Me, Stacy (SMS photography), Adam (stacy's boyfriend) and Gina (CLINK) made our way down there on a bus on the 29th of December. it took us approx. 15 hours to get there and 26 hours back!! we were at the border for 14 hours in line to get thru! it was crazy, and now we know NEVER to try to drive over the border on a holiday weekend, especially new year's weekend. if you take out the bus ride home, the trip was great - cool little town. If you have seen the movie the Mexican with brad pitt and julia roberts - the town brad pitt is wandering around in part of the time is Real... just a little bit of trivia :)

Real is very 'hilly' and is 9000 ft above sea level, so the altitude was tough - we were out of breath most of the trip!

this was the cool bar/restaurant where we spent NYE...

this is the 2-mile tunnel that is the only entrance and exit to Real... the sides of the tunnel are 'sparkly'... Real got it's start as a silver mining town.

Adam taking pictures dangerously close to the edge of that cliff!
