Stayed in the park today waiting from the Dr to call re Daniele’s med. Waited and waited. Went to the office to pay and to ask the manager to help call some pharmacies. Well, he had THE solution: “Jessie”. Jessie happened to be in the office and both the manager and Jessie said that he helped park guests all the time. He then handed me a card that said: “Jessie…Serving the needs of visitors to Mexico for over 24 years”. I gave him the prescription and off he went. Couple of hours later he showed up with the right meds in a sealed box. Seems that he knows that only hospital pharmacies carry this and he knew where to go.
We are leaving here Wed for Teacapan. It is below Mazatlan on the southern border of the state of Sinaloa. May or may not have wi fi for a few days. Cell phone should work.
Wed 3 January 2007, Guadalajara to Teacopan (State of Sinaloa)
Banditos!!!
Left Guad at about 0815 and proceeded SW. Beautiful day. Was getting close to our comfort level on gas so pulled into a Pemex but it was closed. 2 fellows were there and told me there was one about 10KM ahead. I thought they were giving me directions but it turned out that I had just offered them a ride to Tepic, about 2 hours away! So they piled in, pushed dogs aside and off we went. Mind you, Daniele is asleep in the back! They were really nice fellows with very little English. Later Daniele came into the living area and they all started chatting big time since her Spanish is not too bad, especially comprehension. The older fellow has 2 daughters married to Americans in Wisconsin. We actually hated to see them go when we dropped them off in Tepic and we expect the ride in a motor home will be the subject of conversation for awhile. We then went through some light rain…more than we’ve seen since Oct.
We arrived at the Onac RV Park in Teacopan at about 1530. (www.villasonac.com) (click on the US flag for English version) What a park and only $15US/nite! The view is amazing. The beach is fantastic with light surf. We’re right on the water, concrete pads, Wi-Fi. Just watched the sun go down in the West and here comes a full moon in the East.
Doesn’t get any better than this. The best park ever.
We pan to be here for 2 nights but might just stretch it to 3…the damned cat in Kino will have to wait.
