Aguascalientes

Last Tuesday we left San Blas on a roadtrip to Aguascaliente with our friend Paty. Here you can see her in her kitchen. We took turns driving and it was my turn through Guadalahara!!!! Good grief. Paty drives a GMC suv so I just pointed it where I wanted to go and floored it. Everyone was trying to get infront of us but I was tough under Paty's guidance!!!!!

This is the wing we stayed in of Paty's gorgeous home. The city was wonderful with some awesome architecture but it was a tad cold. It felt like minus 2 according to the weather chanel. Ofcourse there is no central heating!!!! This is Mexico BUT it rained, the wind blew, the temerature soared down!!!! Yikes it was cold. Paty had warned me but I didn't think it could possibly be THAT cold. Oh yes it was!!!! We still had a fabulous time.

Friday we headed back to San Blas by bus. I thought we might be in trouble when the bus that was only to make two stops on the way to Tepic stopped at a taco stand and the driver bought four tacos with sauce and a hard boiled egg, got back into the bus, adjusted the steering wheel so he could use it as a table and off we went!!!! He was quite young and had blue eyes which is very unusual here. On the open highway he did very well. Ray saw him using cruise control but in the cities he became a mad man - The Road Rage Warrior!!!!! He followed transport trucks so close a piece of paper couldn't be passed between us and no one was getting infront of him no matter what!!!! Agressive plus. He wound his way in and out of traffic like he was in a little car not a huge bus. He kept crossing himself all during the six hour journey and more and more I began to understand. Thank you God for getting me another mile safely. By the end of the trip I was doing the same thing!!!!!

So nice to be back in San Blas!!!! It is warm and sunny.
