"Friendship doubles the joys and divides the anguish in half. "
Sir Francis Bacon (1561-1626) British philosopher and statesman.
Greetings dear invisible steemians,
One afternoon the steemian Giacomo, aca @gpiglioni, launched the proposal and in a short time we started to plan the plan, the logistics and finally the call.
Our mission ... Put to sweat those moldy little bodies of so much being in front of the PC of the steemian of Cervantes.
What nobody will tell you is that unfortunately there was no transport this Sunday from the subway station where we were to the cable car terminal, so we went on foot, despite the protests of our dear @cathyhaack who used the euphemism: "to see I love them "to remind our parents every 30 steps.
THE INCIDENT
After a long walk, about 10 blocks up, we reached a bus that came from another subway station. I feel @angeltirado muttering ... "I told you!" : P
So our motley group was already at the foot of the avila, tired, but happy after lots of laughter on the way. Although we still needed six members who were looking for how to get there too.
The tickets to today are very economical: 150,000 bolivares so go adding up so you can see that it is a gift to spend some time up there in the Waraira Repano;)
@mery.morales25 shy and charming
Already at the entrance of the park there is much to photograph, we ran to the old wagons that were huge compared to the modern and began to sound the clicks of our steemias cameras.
Flowers, floors, cables everything was susceptible to take pictures, but what more called me to my attention were my companions happy and laughing.
The Caracas cable car was inaugurated by Marcos Pérez Jiménez in April 1956 and its wagons walked through 5 stations that included the beautiful town of Galipán and La Guaira on the other side of the mountain.
It was re-inaugurated 18 years ago in 2000 with modern cabins and the only trip to the Hotel Humbold
@feuerbolt wishing the camera of @cathyhaack
Really this walk started very well, seeing the animated boys taking pictures from the entrance was a symptom of a lot of material that we will see in the next few days in their blogs.
"Look what others do not see. Then show it. That's creativity. "Brian Vaszily.
FLORECILLAS
This is one of those things that one takes for granted, garden flowers, ornaments that sometimes, when you really stop to admire you realize the wonder you have a few meters away from you.Silent, dressed in May, they can be seen among the crowd, greedy to eat and laugh, they disinterestedly wear their best clothes, waiting only for a furtive glance and a thank you.
THE CLIMB
The wagons cross the mountain on a trip that lasts only about ten minutes, moments in which we twist around the cabin looking for appropriate angles and the odd crazy take your phone through a small window to take this picture without the glass in between ;)
The mountain in all its greenness is friendly, with a radiant sun and a growing cold as we ascend.
Much fresh air and almost at noon a hunger for stuffed fleas.
WE FINALLY ARRIVE!!!
Throughout the journey there are artists, from painters, caricaturists, mimes, jugglers, living statues, a pleasure for the senses.
Candy stalls, hot chocolate and handicrafts also go all the way to Hotel Humbold.
And of course, everyone taking pictures ... recording videos and talking about how amazing each blog will be.
Already at this point of the trip I was absolutely in love with our group, nice, simple people, sharing the same passion and the same hunger, it was almost two and nobody had eaten .... We were still waiting for @robinsonlgil and company.
Photo performance ;)
We will never know what happened to @amanardis at this moment ... but the truth is that everything began to get out of control !!!
@gpiglioni decided to get married in situ ... and no matter what, he threw himself into the water!
Watch this picture well!
It looks like a normal photo, right !?
I'm even trying to imagine what I'd be thinking to have such an elephant's ass face.
@amanardis when he saw her she crossed herself like twenty times and she is atheist LOL
From here we went down to the cable car station and decided to rest in café páramo. A Venezuelan franchise in the style of the two-tailed mermaid.
And already very, very hungry, we decided to stop waiting for the stragglers and we went to the beautiful "San José de Galipan"
This is a small town famous for its crops of flowers, fruits and restaurants, was founded more than two hundred years ago by Canarian immigrants and is the only town allowed in the Waraira Repano National Park.
And after checking each restaurant for good offers and good food we sat down and the rest of the clan arrived magically ... @ robinsonlgil @ roucelin with their beautiful baby, @purapaita, @ carlosacv2 and @hamktrazos.
And to devour the grill has been said, we ate 15 people for 51,000,000 Bsf. something like 3,400,000 BsF. per person plus tip ... 1.25 SBD at today's price per head;)
Now if the whole clan was together.
Although some could not stand the pela ...
Time to finish this incredible adventure and follow our path.
I will continue being a hippie of steemit, I believe faithfully that this is the way, to make community, to look us in the eye and to recognize ourselves as brothers beyond all the pettiness that greenbacks generate.
This was my vision, I recommend you visit the blog of those who went to the experience to enjoy the different points of view:
