49 degrees in the back of Rodrigo
I couldn't believe it! When my alarm clock rang at 5am, the outside temp was 48 degrees!! 2 hr later, when we all piled into the back of Rodrigo, our borrowed truck, it had gone up 1 whole degree! Yippee! I resembled the kid in The Christmas Story. I had on a short sleeve shirt, a long sleeve shirt, a hooded zipper up sweat shirt, a thick warm jacket, and rind/wind coat with a hood. It's amazing I could get the last jacket to zip! It worked! I stayed quite comfortable, and was very happy to peel out of the top 4 layers when we got to Buena Vista since it was in the 80's.
Luckily, we only had one more chilly morning before it returned to normal...about 58 at wake up time and mid to low 70s during the day. I'm so glad it's still dry season. Rainy season is supposed to start in May, but we've had short but strong rain showers the last 2 afternoons. Each day the clouds seem to be thicker; a sure sign rainy season is coming (for 6 months).
