Over 2,000 years ago a sapling shot up and over the years grew into El Gigante, or Arbol de Tule. Thought to be the largest tree in Latin America, this cypress tops fifteen stories. As you can see, the tree dwarfs the church. The day we visited, young girls and boys dressed in white streamed around the trunk after receiving their First Communion.

I love, love, LOVE this tree!!! Your travels sound very cool and I'm so glad that you guys are eating well, meeting good people and exploring all that Mexico has to offer!
Big hugs,
