Hotel Fleur d'Epee Gosier

... workshop just outside Juchitan, with a nice shady tree outside and did my service with the assistance of Carlos a young boy at hate MC shop. He got rid of all my waste and supplied some rag!<br>The road had turned a bit boring long and straight and flat, mainly cattle country. I passed my first Mexican wind farm and it was huge. <br>I had been toying with going to Tuxtla Gutierrez to look at the Somidero Canyon but was ...

D** Ball repräsenti**te dabei die Sonne, d**en Lauf nicht unt**brochen w**den durfte. Dah** war das Ziel des Spiels, den Ball (mit Schult**n und Beinen) möglichst in d** Luft zu halten.

... unexplored. Moving on towards Pelenque, another 8 hours on the bus, so arrived tired and a bit ratty, but came through it with a few beers with our new friends from around the World, always the best part of the journey. Pelenque was in the jungle, hot and humid. Everything felt damp, including our washing which just got wetter, as did out clean clothes. Again the ruins were vast and different enough to make them just as interesting with comb ...

... it at road speeds it can take out your undercarriage or send you careening into the ditch. 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.

Just a stop over in this small town, where a Saturday night is spent drinking until falling asleep in the streets. 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. This time has not much apart from good hot dogs, we went to eat them at a stand where they were showing a Mexican boxing game, and i had to stasy the whole 11 rounds and cheer up with the locals...

Ahh Pacifico...Puerto Escondido was a great place to make our first layover. We spent several days at the Playa Zicatela, surfing chest-high waves in the a.m. and not doing much at all after that. Carrie made her debut on the boogie board, catching a number of waves, and even scaring an innocent swimmer to the beach with some high-speed maneuvers. Chris still has his nipples, but it was a close call.... We were fortunate to have ...

... easily hopped into a taxi and paid USD 20 for the 15 minute drive on the expressway to the tourist town of Gosier. Through a very appreciated time share certificate, we had one week stay at the Creole Beach Hotel. This is a 150+ room hotel with small kitchens and great sea views from many rooms. It has a private beach and double swimming pool. The hotel even has ...

... for the umpteenth time the "Ten Secrets That Will Drive Your Man Crazy in Bed"), listening to all your illegally downloaded MP3's on your Ipod, or just taking a nap. Since pictures are worth a thousand words, I'll end my incesant verbosity and let you see for yourself what a little slice of heaven on earth looks like.... Enjoy! ps. We even neglected to take pictures, as you can see from the anemic photo album that accopanies this entry.
