Day 10, Acapulco sunset

Today was a nice day of driving. We left Zihuantanejo and a delightful drive to Acapulco. The 2 lane road was paved except it took us 6 hours to drive 150 miles. There are many dips or topes  in the road as you drive through small villages. It's amazing that all these little villages have electric power with lights and yet Puertecitos has no electricity to date.  As we approached the community of Coyuco, there was a traffic jam in the middle of town. This is one of the communities that was devasted by the Hurricane that hit this area in August 2013. The people are all very friendly except the traffic wasn't moving very fast. In fact it was so crowded that you could've stopped to have lunch and then got back into your vehicle and been on your way! It took us 6 hours to go 160 miles today. To think we complained about driving on the road to Gonzaga when it was rough.  We are now situated at Pie de la Cuesta - Foot of the Coastline. It's very nice and it's much cooler climate than what we've experienced these past few days. As the days progress, the Country of Mexico gets more interesting. The people have all been very nice and grateful that we, Americans, are here visiting. Surprising as we arrive to these different campgrounds the tourist staying here always are amazed...What Americans are here visiting Mexico? It's good to see your return. We have met a couple of people here at the Acapulco Trailer RV Park who are from Germany and Switzerland and Canada. The people from Europe fly here and stay through late April and then return home. They maintain their rigs here at the park. Jolley Tamale Lady
