"Take this journey and feel the weather - the parched air, or the cold wind. Imagine 400 years ago, traveling step by step, with no relief for your swollen tongue or empty belly, praying to God not to be one of the ones taken by the Journey of the Dead."

When I was almost at Socorro I realized I forgot the most imortant thing, my camera.
