Casa Inn Zacatecas

From the ship we boarded a bus for a tour of the city. It took us around the bay
of the city.Then a Short street to the Pacific side where the
Cliff divers are. We were able to shop for about 30 minutes, then went through the la brea hotel to
look at the cliff where the divers jump from ...

Hey!

I went to a big archeological site north of Mexico City called Teotihuacan, to help tear down the rest of the ruins by walking on them. We were not many tourists there, because it´s low season right now I guess. It´s not often you wish you were surrounded by more tourists but when hawker outnumber it´s preys (tourists) 3:1 you get the eyes of every single hawker on you. To Mexican hawkers credit they usually walk away after just one "no".
Acapulco, Pacific Coast, Mexico mighty_ted

Fui la primera en levantarse. En condiciones normales soy muy huevona pero curiosamente siempre que voy de viaje me despierto primero aunque nos hayamos desvelado... Habíamos llegado al Depa a las 6:00 de la mañana, ¿o era más tarde?.
Desayunamos, fuimos a la playa, fuimos a la alberca, yo estaba desesperada porque habíamos quedado de ver a los peruanos en la noche.
En el Paradise estuvimos con ellos, bailamos ...

... fecha y perdiendo los ánimos hasta que hartas lo dejamos para el 3 de Julio, aún cuando ese fin de semana había ley seca por elecciones... YA EL CHISTE ERA IR.
Salimos de Toluca como a las 6 y tomamos la carretera a Tenango, pasamos Ixtapan, calculo que por Coatepec Harinas nos paramos a preguntar cómo salíamos a la del Sol y unos ñores borrachos que estaban chupando en la orilla de la carretera nos trataban de explicar ...

... Quemada because they'd been burnt - no-one can agree their history & they're not that extensive or spectacular but the setting is pleasant & the 2km hike from the main road and then around the ruins was good exercise! That evening saw La Oreja de Van Gogh in concert - more space at this out of town venue but no seating so had enough of standing up after about an hour. Also, new lead singer not a patch on the previous one! Friday's supposed highlight was Jaguares in ...

... a box of birds again. Galen on the other hand is plagued by a chesty bronchial type cough. When we get to PV we will get some antibiotics for him. This cough has lasted for a long time and wakes him up at night. We are just sitting having desayuno en el RV with Haley finding our next stop. One thing we found is that we don't know **** about the spanish language! But we have managed with what we know and have even told a few jokes. Education will be ...

... I paid the entry fee of $3.00 CDN and hurried to find the entrance, telling Lobo to meet me back here in about 20 minutes. I found the rooms where the masks were displayed and was immediately overwhelmed by the numbers and variety of masks hanging on the walls in display cases. These masks were mostly from the pre-Spanish era and were all from Mexico. The variety of design was so incredible that one would believe that they came ...

... WOW" Factor - good on the "Crusty Bun" Factor Reasons To Not Make Zacatecas Your Choice for a Long-Term Stay - it bears repeating, although I am getting tired of it, that the night time temperatures on the Central Highlands can reach near freezing - low night time temperatures are particularly relevant here in Zacatecas due to the 8,000 foot altitude which makes it the highest place we visited during our discovery tour ...

... up at Cathedral San Fernando at four bells that day when the restaurant opened but Collins insisted that we´d be fine and that there was noooo need to make a reservation on a Monday night. I stupidly listened and upon returning at 8, they were booked out. I was utterly devastated and that night, I could only dream of what could have been.... Next day, still nursing my broken heart and a hollow tummy, we hopped on a bus for Guanajuato
