day two


In Topolobampo. Left Tepic at 6:30 this morning. Easy drive to Mazatlán where we encountered mega traffic snarls. The entire go-through is being ripped up and rebuilt, presumably to make it much easier to by-pass the town if you are so lucky as to be avoiding this terrible place. Then on to Los Moches and Topo. Same hotel ~ the only one in town ~ and the same room ~ #209 ~ for the night. We're not going in to dinner at Chichos; we'll snack ourselves into satiattion and get a good night's sleep. Tomorrow morning we'll have breakfast in the hotel's dining room before headint on to San Carlos for our last night in Mexico. Mojo still holding.

Liz asks:

Why is Mazatlan "a terrible place?" I always heard it was one of the Pacific coast's tourist hot-spots.

Yes, it is. Every tourist in the word is there. Thousands and thousands and thousands of them. It's so crowded you cannot drive down the street, or find a place to park so you can walk down the street. It's loud and dirty. Other than those few comments, I guess it's OK!
