Sunbeams through the clouds

Photo taken last night from bus upon entering Xela.

Yesterday was a very long travel day yet I was rewarded when we finally reached the town of Xela. As we were driving down the valley into the town, the sun began to set and the most magical sunbeams of light I have ever seen burst out of the clouds, streaming down into the valley. My only regret is that I could not stop to take a picture. Thus I only was able to get this one picture which does not even come close to doing justice of the beautiful site.

The power and mystique of the neighboring volcanoes seems to be calling me. Looks like I will have to do a hike!

Stay tuned….
