Well, I got bored with Guadalajara, and decided to move on to the west coast. My plan was to stay a week or two in Teacapan for the beach and the weather, then onto my favorite Mexican city…Mazatlan, and get some serious bike riding in.
On the road out of Guadalajara...
This was one nice road. Much better then most Mexican roads.
Passing the actual town of Tequila, where it's said the spirit was invented. Surrounded by Agave plantations.
Six hours later, on the beach at Teacapan.
What a place. The RV park is just behind me. This is a look at the boats and the restaurant on the grounds.
Looking towards the town. There's a bunch of pelicans there on the rocks.
It's a fishing village.
Here's where I parked that first night. Coconut palms all over the place.
Fishermen park their boats right here at the RV park.
Here's my dinner that first night. Fresh prawns! Damn were they good.
Time for a shot of sunset over the Pacific, from Teacapan, Mexico.
So, I’m now on the Pacific coast again. And here at Teacapan, just like in Mazatlan, there doesn’t seem to be to bad of an insect problem. No sand fleas for instance. Then there is that wonderful breeze that comes off the ocean sometimes all day, but usually starts in the early afternoon.
I’d visited this RV park 2 & 3/4 years before and asked the owners then when they would be getting WiFi and they told me that it would be within two or three weeks. But, they never did. I liked the place for several reasons; they were right next to town so it was an easy bike ride, they had a pool, they had a great restaurant and bar right there, that was cool since I love a pina colada or three with dinner. They made a mistake not installing the WiFi. Would have made me, and others I’m sure, plunk down many pesos for a weeks stay. Or longer. Since they were so close to town, it wouldn’t have cost them that much to get DSL either.
So, although it’s my favorite RV park along this stretch of the Pacific, I only stayed one night…because of lack of WiFi.
