A beautiful and terrifying place. I’m not particularly afraid of heights – although, as I get older, my self-confidence with balance is faltering and my relationship with mobility workouts is intensifying – but this place was not without risk. My brother drove, and this is no knock to his driving, but not having control of the vehicle as we serpentined down the switchback road or along the cliff’s edge, closer than I would have cared to drive, it is hard not to feel a bit uneasy.
