Ok I know there is going to miscommunications between people but this one was big. I'm not going to go into detail but a 3 hour bus rid to hang out with some friends for the night turned into a 10 hour ride jammed in a suv with 7 others to go to a WEDDING! Ok, I don't have any nice cloths with me and I wasn't planning on 10 hours in a car. At least I got some free food.

Accommodation <br><br>Cosala has five hotels with at least one to suit every budget. The nicest hotel in town and the place where I stayed is Hotel Quinta Minera, Miguel Hidalgo No. 92, Tel: 01 (696) 9650222, Web: www.haciendaquintaminera.com . The hotel is housed in a fine period building with many original features and is set around beautiful gardens with two swimming pools. The ...

... the butts were hurting! This turned out to be a nightmare, we followed the main road into the city center where all of a sudden we were met by signs for McDonalds, Office Depot, KFC, and Subways!! Not exactly what we wanted or were looking for. The city center was mayhem with cars and motos going everywhere. Jess got frustrated and weary of all the traffic so we quickly turned around and tried to find a "Motel-No-Tell" which are so common here in Mexico ...

We got our muffler replaced in los mochis for $35 and headed down the coast to el dorado. lindsey got a speeding ticket for doing 80km in a 60km zone (Sometimes the speed limit posts are hard to see and change suddenly here) it was a bit frantic to sort out what was going on as the police officer spoke very quickly and with a thick accent making him hard to understand. we thought he was going to take lindsey's drivers licence and registration at first but she said she would ...

... the door step (that looked lilke an accordion) but we... Ian... managed to repair everything with a good old hammer. The park was built around a lagoon and was a fairly extensive water park and villas complex. We noticed many beautiful birds and the funniest thing. We were there in a huge fenced park all alone with the overnight security guard. Bon, enough for this one! Bye people, Eugie

On the way to Mexico City, the bus made several stops at many villages along the way. Some very interesting... Consisting of: San Ysidro, Tijuana, Mexicali, Sonoyta, Caborca, Altar, Santa Ana, Hermosillo, Obregon, Navojoa, Los Mochis, Guasave, Culiacan, Mazatlan, Tepic, La Piedad, Querataro. We havn't seen a caucasian in days ...

First off, i´ve added some photos in! In log number 6 theres a few from Canada, which should have been under the niagra falls entry but i cant be bother to change it now. Check them out! Well im down in Acapulco now. Traveling on buses and undergrounds with a hangover isnt good but i made it here in the end. The wrestling turned out to be ok but not that amazing, we were right at the back as well which didnt help. I think the main ...

A whole new world greets us this morning. The trip to Los Mochis after the ferry docked (9:30pm) was completely uneventful. We were reluctant to drive at night, but the highway was very well used, a divided 4 laner, and good speed was maintained by all vehicles for the 20 km to ...

... sleep. I felt so very proud when there was indeed a taxi at five the next morning to take me to the train station, ready for the Copper Canyon railway ride. The train goes from Los Mochis to Chihuahua, but I had booked to Creel (about two thirds of the way, as it is then quicker to get from Creel to Chihuahua by bus and I needed to get an overnight bus to Monterrey that same day. So, got on the train - an old fashioned American type train ...
