Weekend in NY

Hum, it seems that american burgers are... tasty, cheesy and... Raphi enjoyed it!


In an italian restaurant with a polish waitress!! hum, nice green Elk Raphi ;)

















Cute Martina, alias Meg for Marco, who knows why?! The wine was good ;) but not as good as the pasta Marco ate...














Breakfast in Central Park




















With a bit of distance, I didn't realize how much we liked showing our tong ;)

















Good mood everywhere ;)































Manhattan in the back




















































































In front of me, the statue of Liberty

























































Here it is!


























































Mais ils sont fous les Suisses!!!





































































Martin&Raphi& Co.



































Starbucks coffee in the subway...



















Update from mid-Septembre: La Media Luna (San Luis Potosi)

Well, well, well, it was kind of hectic week-end and I start by the end, like you'll see it wasn't so bad after all ;) On Sunday evening, about 21h, we crashed into a cow, I'm deeply sorry, I only have a pic of the car because the cow went away!!! I was sitting in the front and the hole corresponds to the head of the cow... As you can imagine, I dreamt of the cow's head a couple of nights!! BUT nobody got hurt!!! Ouf!

In summary: if you drive in Mexico at night, TAKE CARE!!!!


Otherwise, we went to a lake, called "La media Luna" because of its shape, it's close to San Luis Potosi, a 40-meters deep lake with warm water!! And we enjoyed a diving tour with a spanish guide, it was great!




Miguel... from under the water






Before going to our diving tour, some exercises...








Training on earth, the lake is surrounded by a nice pine tree wood where you can camp, eat and so on.




From left to right, Jorge, Sol, Mario, Vlad and Roy








Sol in a "traction exercise", nice support, we all had to do at least 5!!



















Funny bridge over a river of cold water, which joins another one of warm water...
















From left to right, Miguel, Vlad, yo y German




















Rueda at the 3rd place (from the left!!)













After a 4-meters jump, swimming was kind of relaxing ;)




































































































This is the cold water river where swimming in the current was quite funny!



















Colourful house in... I don't remember the name of the city but well, the "enchiladas verdes" from breakfast were good!
































In the Sierra Gorda, if you pay attention, there is a little animal in the bush with fake eyes, I never saw such one before!!












After camping in the Sierra Gorda on Friday evening, we went for a walk in the morning... Striking view











































































































































































































































































































































































Listening to the explanation of Lucia, a local guide






























































Hum, I do apologize for the disorder, this was before the dive, close to San Luis Potosi!!














































Sol, Mario y Vlad








































































Early morning, nice camping place, pretty cold, really quiet... well, it was nice.







































































































































































I know, I look like a "teletobby" ;D
