Honeymoon pt 3 (last one)

So we flew back from san juan and then flew to guadilajara where it is one huge crazy polluted city. we stayed in a pretty nice hotel (although twin beds) and then we had a very good breakfast although i ate rotten corn mold on a gordita but hey it wasn't that bad. we then finally left and went to manzanillo (about a 4 hour drive in the dark on mexican turnpikes which was very weird.)which i was informed was where the movie "10" was filmed and made. I didn't believe it till i got there and that was the only thing in english was a loop of that movie. and i watched it in pieces most of the next day because that day was "picture day" where i stood in the heat while julia was photographed by a guy named jehovah that smoked so much that when he touched you to position you for the shot you got a nicotine high. All of his pictures were the kind where you were staring off into space and found that thing very amusing.

however first night i went to the pool and got bit by a whole bunch of sand fleas, they are aweful!! they called them jejenes i called them the devil
then there were cuchalupas(sp?) but they are mole crabs. I honestly thing they are more related to shrimp

anyways those were weird things.
took a whole bunch of pics (300) then we had dinner on the beach and music xylophone music it was strange. The next day i snorkled again (saw a skate and a pufferfish) and some other cool stuff i didn't see on the atlantic side. Ate dinner in a taquria and went home the next day. Flew all sunday and went to work on monday.

  1. We have those big ones in the surf by our house. They are no problem...The kids go bonkers trying to catch them.

    Sand fleas are nasty and fortunately we don't have to deal with that stuff...

    Dude confess these are wonderful pics. Imagine living on the beach all the time and work like hell to get back!!!!

    Cheers,
