Wednesday December 10…11:00pm
Not a bad nights sleep, but we decided to move on anyhow. It was going to be a really hot day, because the temperature inside Sherman at 8:00am was already 26C (80F).

A farmers field (day 2)
Monday December 8…9:00pm
Sometime last night, I woke up and Sherman was rocking! Half asleep, I thought maybe it was an earthquake.

A farmers field near Sanchez Magallanes
Sunday December 7…9:30pm
So besides being a dirty beach with lots of bugs, it was also not a nice place to sleep. Quite a few cars drove up with music blaring loudly at all hours of the night. And lots of dogs barking. Oh well.

I’m writing the journal early tonight, because I know I’m just not going to feel like it later!

Lake Catemaco (day 4)
Friday December 5…9:30pm
It was pouring rain when we woke up. It never did clear up, and remained overcast the whole day. Not very nice for Glen’s birthday, but we had no control over the weather. However we did have her and Steve over for a nice lunch. Ruth made chicken curry with rice, and then cheesecake for dessert.

Lake Catemaco (day 2)
Wednesday December 3…10:30pm
We woke up to a beautiful blue sky for our boat trip this morning. We only had to cross the street to get to our boat dock, and our driver Hector was ready to go at 8:45am.

Lake Catemaco, Mexico
Tuesday December 2…10:00pm
We woke up to rain dropping on the roof. It rained steadily while we got ready to go, and didn’t let up until mid-morning. We were on the road by 8:30am, having waited a bit in the hope that traffic will have lightened up by the time we got to the bypass around Veracruz.

Monday December 1…9:30pm
We woke up to a cloudy day and had made the decision that if it was cloudy, we would move on. So we packed everything up, and were on the road before 9am.

Coasta Esmerelda (day 6)
Sunday November 30…11:00pm
Spent the morning doing some minor repairs to Sherman. Nothing important, just crossing a few things off the to-do list. Ruth spent the morning cleaning out the oven/stove top area, which she had wanted to do while at her parents, but somehow never got around to it.

Coasta Esmerelda (day 5)
Saturday November 29…11:00pm
I rode back to the hotel this morning, and used their internet. It was a different person at the front counter, and I asked if I could use the internet, he said it was okay. Glen and Steve went later in the morning, and they also had no problem using it.

Coasta Esmerelda (day 4)
Friday November 28…9:15pm
I rode my bike back to the hotel this morning and used the internet for a bit. We’re not customers there any more, so I don’t want to overstay my welcome in their lobby, although nobody seems to mind.

Coasta Esmerelda (day 3)
Thursday November 27…10:00pm
At 8:30am, I rode my bike down to the hotel we stayed at night before last. It’s only about half a km up the road, and I could easily see the hydro crews were still working, I checked with the girl at the counter, and she told me the power wouldn’t be working until Friday morning. I asked her if I could use the internet in the morning, and
