So, in the meantime I will write about Don Goyo. That's the affectionate (and much more easily pronounced) nickname that people have given our friendly neighborhood volcano, Popocatepetl. He has been very active lately, spewing out ashes that have been falling at times like snowflakes. Everything has gotten covered. In the morning I have to turn on the windsheild wipers to clean off the ashes so I can see to take the boys to school. This is the first time I've ever seen so many ashes (or is it much ash??) covering things. In the past they have blown toward Mexico City or even as far away as Oaxaca, but not this time. It has been a couple of ash filled weeks. The sky has been gray and we have stayed inside as much as possible. Thankfully today has been a bit clearer. I hope Don Goyo is happy again and will go back to sleep.
And I hope I can post pictures soon :( I thought of putting a picture of Don Goyo, but oh yeah, I can't.
