Ok heres the low down, we have made it half a days ride from the boarder of Mexico and Guatemala. The last 3 days it has been raining like crazy which is no fun on motorcycles. we stayed in Puerto escondito for two nights which was amazing Its my favorite part of mexico so far. the days before we made it there were pretty rainy one night we pulled over ontop of this mountain pass and a lady named victoria let us stay in a shed that was desighned to be a taco stand but had never been used she made us dinner which was so good and let us buy stuff from here little store that she runs out of the front room of her house.
the day before as we were meeting up with shawny alicia and I were racing through the mountains trying to make it to acapulco before sundown and we came across a wreck on the road. there was a motorcycle on the road a smashed up and a white sheet covering the person that was riding the bike. We were sick to our stomachs and road so slow after that. it was kind of a wake up call to be more percacious.
so were going to cross the boarder today in to Guatemala I think were all really happy to be getting there finally after 3000 miles and 18 days of ridding. at the same time though were a little nervous, im sure it will be fine its just when crossing into another country theres always that feeling of the unknown. we hope to get t lake atitlan very soon for we here its paradise. and I cant wait to start taking spanish classes i hate not being able to talk fluently. im staying here until i know spanish. ok see you all latter.
