Chapter 3

"Buinvenidos a Estados Unidos Mexicanos" a voice interrupted her dreams. Startled Lauren looked up into the friendly stewards' smiling face and managed a light laugh.

"What?"she asked, totally puzzled. She ran a hand through her longish mane and suppressed a yawn. She'd slept through most of the flight to Mexico, since the night before they took off, she'd been busy packing and repacking her rucksack, totally panicky of what to bring along. Eric had stood mockingly by her bedroom door and rolled his eyes, as she for the fifth time unpacked her glittery cocktail dress and stuffed it in again ( in case an occasion would come up). Women! he's scoffed and left before the left pair of her espadrilles could hit him. She'd been up most of the night and had just been too excited to sleep.

The mestizo flight attendannt returned her grin and repeated in his slightly accented English: "Welcome to Mexico."

"Oh! Gracias!" she replied remembering a bit from her spanish class.

"Hey sleepyhead!" Eric shouted from behind her seat and tugged playfully at her hair. "You missed the great view! Mexico looks great even from the air!"

"Come on kids," Indy urged as he stood up from his seat and started pulling out their bags from the overhead compartment,"Let's get out of this plane." Donning his fedora he pushed their way to the exits.

Overly warm air greeted them as they stepped off from their carrier. Shielding her eyes from the scorching rays of the sun, Lauren could make out high, rugged mountains in the distance. Ring of fire
,she whispered.

"Yes Pico de Orizaba, the highest point in Mexico..." Indy obviously had heard her and followed her gaze to the mountains. "It's also the highest summit in North America."

"Are we gonna go there too, Henry?"

"Don't call-" he sighed and stopped. "Perhaps, but I thought you all would be more interested in the Atztec ruins."

"But Dad," Mike, who hadn't said much during the whole way to Mexico, said," The Aztec Ruins are in New Mexico!

The friendly mestizo flight steward who'd woken up Lauren, had heard their conversation and came up to them. He was nodding.
