Raul lives in Tlacotalpan, Mexico, on the banks of the Papaloapan River. The river is his life. He plays the jarana, takes painting classes, and visits his community carpenter. He will travel to Zacatecas where Ana Lucia is waiting with her friends, a "tamborazo" and a piñata. Together they tour the Cerro de la Bufa, travel by cable car, visit a silver and gold mine, and play at a park designed for the understanding of science. Last, they visit the archaeological site of Chicomoztoc and see the remains of an ancient culture.
