Our transportation

Bus service in Mexico is superb, although some drivers act like Kamikaze Pilots. They may not be maintained nor as luxurious as buses in the states, but they run more frequently and are less expensive. I'm just as happy to ride and not drive!

Mexican Army Soldier

This is a photo that I took surreptiously after our bus from Tepic to Mazatlan was stopped by soldiers in the Mexican Army who searched our checked luggage and items on the bus for drugs and firearms. I had to take pictures in a hurried, secretive fashion without too much attention to focus and composition. Of course, I was detected and was politely but firmly asked to stop. The soldiers were less intimidating that the guard dogs!
