It is hard to believe the time has come to say goodbye to Mexico, which has treated us so well. We are leaving with mixed emotions. Shocked that our time here is already up but looking forward to the next leg of our trip: Central America!
As we close our worn out Mexican guidebooks and open the new books describing the future visions that wait for us, we are already reminiscing about all the things we loved about Mexico: the food, the people, new friends, the beautiful water and places; and part of us wants to stay forever. But like most trips, you move on to your next destination and plan your future trip back to the places you loved and the places you loved to read about but didn’t get the chance to go.
Our final days in Mexico reminded us why we love sailing through here. In Puerta Escondido, we befriended Pepe who worked at the Port Captain’s office. He dashed us around town in his pick up helping us get heavy things: water and diesel. We enjoyed meeting his family: his wife and 2 energetic children came on the boat for a few hours of swimming and eating peanuts followed by a trip into town where Pepe and his wife cooked us a delicious meal in their restaurant.
We hope that as we move on, we meet more people like Pepe and his family who treated us like good friends after knowing us so briefly.
