It's a cool wet morning, just like home. I get the bike out of the ballroom and head off fully suited into the mountains. I manage to get onto the free roads again, I must be getting the hang of it.<br> Once again there are whisps of white clouds drifting above and below, and really high black ones dropping on me! This is probably the best road so far (Mex 190) to Santa Domingo Tehauntepec, really good surface well generally ...

... decorations on the intact roofs....this was the home of Pakal one of the greatest kings, we saw the exquisite sculptured sarcophagus in the museum.......it weighed 10 tons. We moved to private buses as gave us flexibility to stop a waterfalls en route to San Crisobal. We went swimming at Agua Azul falls which was special as something we haven't done before. San Crisobal was very cold indeed as in the mountains, so chose to do horse riding ...

So we become accustomed to looking out for these whenever you see some structures coming up or with in the town limits.There seems to me to be a Tope Joker that will just get bored and throws one in on corners, in the middle of a long straightaway, and also likes to take out the signs that might have been originally ...

On to Puerto Arista, a relative metropolis, plenty of shops, some of them even open! Out of high season seaside towns tend to only fully open at weekends when the city dwelling Mexican hordes descend. Found a nice little place near a smelly lagoon and not far from the beach, but sadly, as often happens in Mexico, the workers started banging around at 6am - because it´s really hot later, they start work early but with no concern for their sleeping clients.

It was quite funny arriving there so late, everyone just coming to us so drunk and talking to us and then after one hour seeing them sleeping outside.

Each of the boys received 3 soldiers and 1 thick rubber band to shoot them down with and the smiles and fun we watched them have made everyone's day. We left early the next day headed down the mountains to Puerto Arista still in convoy with Terry ...

... it. Our hostess is a French woman who is a total knockout (although married) and she´s also a great cook, having a small restaurant for guests as well. Our lagoon trip started on a bit of a sour note. While waiting for the collective (small truck for locals costing 4 pesos), a taxi driver stopped and offered to take us all the way to the lagoon for 25 pesos. Simon said he´d pay for it, so off we went only to be told by the taxi ...
