Puebla, MEXICO

I´m in Puebla, south of Mexico city. I´m here to check out Popocatepetl, the second highest volcano in Mexico and currently the highest active volcano in the Northern Hemisphere.

Located only 70 km southeast of downtown Mexico City, and near Puebla, its been closely watched by volcanologists as around 30 million people live within its reach. Its snow capped which makes it beautiful under the early morning sun. I have not yet seen much smoke but hope with some luck, it may give a puff, just for me!

Trying to find an Alaska travel guide book here in Mexico is like....finding chicken teeth! Can´t even find a Spanish version.
