Sunday December 14…9:00pm
There wasn’t a cloud in the sky all day today. High was about 30C (86F). We expected that because today was Sunday, our spot here would be a little busier, but very few locals showed up.

Seibaplaya
Saturday December 13…11:00pm
As we were getting ready to hit the road this morning, at about 8am, a bunch of RV’s went by. Most were motorhomes pulling cars, and then one pickup truck with a 5th wheel trailer.

Near Sabancui
Friday December 12… 11:00pm
We made no effort to get up early, however when we did arise, we decided that the weather wasn’t good enough to warrant staying here.

Another spot near Puerto Ceiba (day 2)
Thursday December 11…11:00pm
It was windy all last night, and it rained on and off. We decided to stay put and ride it out today in the hopes of better weather, but it never showed up. So it was a day of reading books and playing cards.

Another spot near Puerto Ceiba
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.
