Answer: Mexico |
As we sat reviewing the events of the last three days, we
realized how lucky we were to be alive. Our family of four had planned a
long trek from California to the Guaraba glaciers via the Sonora desert.
As our one-engine plane flew at erratic lazy speed over the Mexican desert we
thought everything was going to be wonderful. We were delighted to land
safely and go to sleep. We woke up in the middle of the night when a
gushing torrent came down the arroyo. We scrambled out, intent on
salvaging all we could. But our gear was out of sight. Our plane
disappeared in a sea of mud. I called for help. Soon a rickety truck
driven by the "policia turista" came to pick us up. The next day
we were back home.
