Tapico to Acayucan - Day 4

Today was pretty uneventful! Which for traveling here is very significantly good!!

We got a good night's sleep last night in Tampico, and lit out of there this morning at 5:30 a.m. (hopefully, we were thinking before the police wake up).

Then it was just drive, drive - over good roads and bad roads, but thru a beautiful landscape. This part of Mexico is lush and green with rolling hills and little pointed mountains. We had a good lunch - my first ever Mexican tacos. They were good and not like American Tacos. You´ll just have to come and try one - can´t tell about it.

Now we are in Acayucan, in a very Spanish looking hotel in a very Mexican looking city, with people everywhere, music coming from all sides, and a lot of commercial activity.

Tomorrow we will head across the Ismus (spelling?) of Mexico to the Pacific and then turn south toward Guatemala. We should be at the border tomorrow night, or even possibly in Guatemala.

All for now - I´m in a crazy internet shop - loud and crowded, and a slow connection with a sticky keyboard.

until later
