Youth Congress, Day #2, Part 2

We left Oaxaca City on Tuesday morning and headed over the mountains. It is a trip of 120 miles which usually takes about 6 hours, because the roads are so bad. We had a little vehicle problem which held us up for a few hours.

We arrived at San Gabriel, Mixtepec, Oaxaca at 10 p.m. They fed us chicken and rice soup, tortillas, and sweet bread. In this picture, you can see a girl pouring horchata. It is a drink made by boiling rice and adding sugar and cinnamon.
