here I am again - from cruise control to balls to the wall!
One minute I was taking it easy sipping coffee and the next minute it was an exercise in escape and evasion!
Actually the first day in Mexico started really well till i broke my own cardinal rule - do not drive at night :-(
I did not find a place to stay and carried on as I always do - Insha Allah I got away with just some minor damage to the rear fender - the Pathfinder fender that is!
Lesson learned - DO NOT drive at night!!
On the positive side - got waved through all the police and army road blocks - this is a first!
Did encounter my first live snake trying to sneak across the highway - and yes, as I don't believe in the death penalty, he/she was still scampering for cover as I drove past!
Road conditions ranged from great to terrible - welcome to Mexico!
In a place called Brisa today - will head for the Belize border tomorrow
cheers!
