The day after I flew into Santiago, our good friends Tom and Dodie flew into the same airport and had their cab take them to the same small, beachside restaurant in Santiago. Ever since then, we've been on the run. We've toured through Manzanillo, traveled up to Melaque, and taken a tour out to Colima.
Below are a few pictures of our adventures so far.

The Colima Archeological Zone covers about 120 acres in the heart of Colima. Only about 1/10th of the site has been excavated so far. The ancient city was in its heyday about 800 AD but dates even further back.

At the Bar Social in Manzanillo - a great bar that serves you free appetizers as long as you are drinking - everything from excellent ceviche to guacamole, chips, potato salad, jicama slices and more.

You guys getting a long way south...maybe turn right and head west for the big jump?? Just left Yuma heading for Eastern Washington to round up all the wandering sage brush. They do that when left alone...safe travels and keep up the great blog. guy
ReplyDeleteNo threat of that! We just can't go on a big jump as long as Rudy is part of the crew. He is too big, too young, and too energetic. He gets depressed on a four day passage.
ReplyDeleteHave fun corralling the sage brush.
