Acapulco Mexico rocks!!!

Afternoon all...

I'm off on my travels again. At the mo I am in Acapulco Mexico. This is a stunning place. Lovely weather, good spicy food and good beer, Corona!

This is the view from my hotel. What hardship 'ey? I'm right on the seafront with loadsa bars down the road. Has to be done, its hot here and you need to keep hydrated hahahahaha!!!!

This was one evening out with the two reps of Telux. On the right its Mr Guillermo and in the middle its Mr Antonio... This is after a good meal of fajitas and shrimps, lovely...

This is the seafront seen from the harbour area. Loadsa little fishing boats and an all pervading smell of woman. Eh, fish, I mean...
This is the famous La Quebrada diving place where local people risk their lives by jumping of high cliffs. Ithink I was there on the wrong day as there were not many divers and they did not go up all the way up the cliffs... Never mind, nice to see and another one ticked of my list...
This again La Quebrada from the far end of the cliffs. It is at the bottom of where you can see that restaurant in the middle of the picture.
OK, gotta go, time for a few Coronas, tomorrow I am off to Guatemala. A country where I have not been before. Should be good,more of the same I hope, Fajitas and Coronas hahahaha!

Cheerio,
Alex.

Mexico and Guatemala

Afternoon,


Finally an interesting trip again. I'm off to Acapulco, Mexico and Sanarate in Guatemala. I've been to Mexico before but not to Acapulco. And for a change the cement plant is actually in the town and not miles into the jungle... This is the place where they do the cliff diving. I've got a day off over the wekend so i will make the effort to go and see this. From the piccies it looks spectacular.Don't even think that I am going to try this myself. This is one of those activities that is best observed from a beer terrace while quaffing Mexico's finest... Corona, Sol, Dos Equis, Modelo, Pacifico. Damn, I know more beer brands from Mexico than what I know here in the UK hahahaha. Plus I love mexican food. Whatever it is, doused in hot chillies does for me...
After Mexico i fly on to Guatemala. This is a place where I have never been before. I had a scoot about on the old interweb and found a few piccies including one of the actual place where i am going. Apparently this is a local beer.... Worth a try methinks...
This is the town of Sanarate in El Progreso county. This is where the plant is close to.

And below is the actual cement plant. I got 4 days there so all in all this trip will be nearly two weeks with a nice short break in the middle in Acapulco...
I know, I know, somebody has to do these hard trips so I will sacrifice myself for this one hahahahahaha!!!! OK, I'll update when I get to Acapulco. I'm off on monday unfortunately with Air Puke (Air France...)... never mind at least it is a nearly direct flight...
More later,

Alex.
