Lerdo de Tejada to Cardenas Mx-Sept 23-12

 

Rained hard last evening and all through the night…..light drizzle this am when we stopped for coffee at the outside vendor down the street.

We rode into a some mountainess  terrain with plenty of twisties both up and down….at times the speed at which we were moving was causing my helmet to pull back…like the G forces in a jet but when I dared to look at the speedometer it read 25….go figure.

We stopped in a quaint city on a Lake for breaky….going down the wrong way again on a one way street……no one got upset…..they just thing we are crazy gringos…..believe the city was Catemaco Mx . An hour later we wondered around Coatzacoalcos Mx trying to find an inexpensive motel……no luck…prices ranged from 500.00 to 900.00 pesos…..earlier we could have had another Love Motel for 400.00. Finally at about 5pm we settled on one for 440.00 that’s about 37.00 cdn.

Currently, we are in the lobby on our computers listening to Thunder and watching the lightning……  

Our bikes are sitting under the entry way to the motel with a security guard outside….we gave him 5.00 US dollars and he almost started to cry…hope we have rides in the AM
