Mexico City, amazing city but very high pollution level. We had a nice rest staying at Rafael's. After a quick visit in the Centro Historico we were ready for the beach... vamos a Acapulco and the Pacific Coast.
On our way we stopped and slepped in another magnificient little village : Taxco. Streets are a maze, narrow and so steep that ir was hard to drive through with our Jeep in the middle of all the old Beatles. We finaly managed to paark safely in the center to be the first ones to vist in the morning.
Another 4 hours drive and we were swimming into the deep polluted blue of Acapulco's Bay... not very attractive but refreshing. Hopefuly, heading south down the coast we will find nicer beaches.
The next day we found ZE spot! miles of sand only for us after a short walk through bushes. After 6hours driving from Acapulco on dirty roads with "topes" every mile, we deserve it!
Our luck does not end here as we discover Puerto Escondido. Nice surfer town, starting just to develop tourism, turning it into a very enjoyable place to relax. Watch for it, in 10 years it will be unfortunatly the New Cancun.
After these few days on the playa, we are ready to drive back to the mountains and the ruins, direction Oaxaca, then Palenque.
Thank you for following our adventure. We love your comments.
