as you can see the roads were not the best, it must be the season for road construction because we went through alot of it. :) it was all good tho.
Breakfast on our first morning into Mexico |
At 4 am this morn the officer there to give us the red or green light must have been sleeping and was very cold , and since we couldn't answer any of her questions in Spanish she gave us the green light so she could get back inside! Yay!
We have hit many check points and been pulled over many times today, but not knowing the language and putting a set of mags in their hands has sent us on our way....again yay! One officer wanted to start going thru our stuff so we rolled down the back window for him and we had a sack of wet swimsuits and underwear, he asked what it was as he is picking it up and examining it, Larry simply said "dirty underwear " he dropped it and sent us on our way immediately ...after he got his set of mags, of course :-) This is one of the Mexican towns we passed through, beautiful!
We were stopped many, many times but all have been good, one officer seemed to be an inactive brother, so Larry encouraged him to return, he seemed (language barrier) to agree and that he would.
The directions were interesting! |
Lots of road construction, this one is one of the better roads. |
One morning we stopped for fuel and as usual tried to place the mags with a couple we were getting breakfast from, she was dressed very modestly (most are not) and in a dress, a huge smile lit up their faces as she reached behind her and got her bookbag out and showed us the February mags, we had found our friends...it seems the food stand is their start in the morning and then later they meet for service...what a Joy!
This was a beautiful bridge |
We are one condo away from the beach...less than a 2 minute walk...mostly out of our front door and around the corner...pictures to come later....until then Have a GREAT day!
I'm glad your family made it down there safely. I always look forward to your posts, as my wife and I dream of changing our circumstances so that we could do what you do some day. Enjoy your stay, and keep the blog entries coming!
