... alla foto che appare ad inizio articolo. Le autorita'
US hanno lasciato la cafetera perche' lei ha lasciato il paese ed e' difficile
che voglia ritornare. Per cui abbiamo ragione di pensare che si sta dirigendo
verso sud, quindi, saltiamo sul primo bus e ci dirigiamo a Mexicali, altra
citta' di frontiera, dove di fatto non succede molto. Con una notte di
bus attraversiamo il deserto di Sonora, che ha ...

Nous voici ŕ Chihuahua, sous une chaleur superieure aux 40 degrés (voire aux 45), la ville du grand Pancho Villa, bandit puis révolutionnaire mexicain, dont on visite l'humble demeure ainsi que celle de Benito Juarez, autre personnage important de l'histoire ...

... centre to a hostel near the station in the hope of snaffling some suckers but the place was empty and the owner a complete nutter, who seemed to think we were trouble making party animals - time for him to get a new career!! The Pancho Villa museum, with it's appalling English translations(maybe I should hire myself out to proof read for government bodies e.g. tourist offices, museums, etc as they all seem to need a lot of help!), was a welcome diversion.

... tv so i thought one night of luxury is in order and i can scale back tomorrow. The beach is a two minute walk. The price was higher due to the fact that it was still holiday high season rate and it would go down $100 pesos tomorrow. It was heaven having all those amenities in one place all at once although i enjoyed those little things that i've taken for granted its time to find cheaper digs. I found a posada for $70 dollars per month it looks like a jail cell block and my ...

... that's all part of the ups and downs, I suppose. The train journey from El Fuerte through to Creel was very scenic and we spent a few days in Creel. We toured the area with a small group and visited the Tarahumaran tribal village of San Ignacio, along with Valley of the Mushrooms (rocks which look like mushrooms) and the Valley of the Frogs (rocks which looked like frogs) and so ...

... heard of an innocent person touched by this activity...

The moral is: people kill each other for a reason.

As i'm out of this bizness i don't mind and just take care to stay in crowded places, anyway most of the time i'm surrounded by my Mexican friends i came to visit in chihuahua. so they stay aware of any trouble maker.. only good time in here.

two things: mexican people like so much beer that exist a bar-drive-in (la cerveceria : the ...

... sympathy for the protesters increased after we were waved through the blockade (one of four cars), as we became less worried about our own situation - i.e. we wanted to get to Puerto Angel before dark. But it was still hard to see what positive effect blockading the highway would have unless the media were called to cover it (which it appeared they hadn´t). We wondered what the people in the 30 or 40 cars would do for food if they were forced to stay through the night.

Today I got to see the house that once belonged to Francisco "Poncho" Villa, a leader of the armed forces of the Mexican Revolution of 1919. I find it fascinating that while the Mexican govermment honors many of these rebel leaders through museums, naming streets and downtown centres after them, etc., they violently suppress the rebels of today who are fighting for the exact same ideals ( the protesters in ...

In a last minute thing we booked our bus tickets from Denver down to El Paso, right on the Mexican border. 15 hours in total. We had just a few hours to pack up our stuff and get back to the bus station. Upon arrival in El Paso we had to catch another bus that would take us over the border into Mexico and onto Chihuahua, our stop over before heading up to the Copper Canyons. When we arrived in El Paso the onward bus was sitting there waiting to leave, we quickly ...
