We loved immersing ourselves in the Mexican culture in Old Mazatlan - We had been lucky to meet Fermin on the way in through the hectic streets who guided us to the Old town where he recommended a great little hotel for $18 dollars right next to the hussle and bussle of the market. We enjoyed a few days break there before moving on south towards San Blas. We wanted to be on the beach for Christmas and had 4 days of riding to get there.
The cycling was really tough. Despite being flat, we are officially in the Tropics now so the heat has risen drammatically. On top Alex caught some stomach bug from Mazatlan and also has tendonitis in his knee and really struggled those few days towards San Blas. One day Alex woke to find he had 2 flat tyres before even starting. Incredibley he went on to get 5 flat tyres before 11am. It was enough to test anyones patience, combined with a stomach bug and gammy knee - the trip got to a new low. When we fianlly arrived in San Blas after several tough days Alex spent 2 days on anti biotics and resting up his knee. The rest was really needed and we were glad to have got through the difficulties with no major dramas.
He got better just in time for the Xmas party we had on Xmas Eve with about ten other travellers who were also staying at the Surf Camp on the beach. Two Canadians had cycled there from Vancouver, Brydone and Tyrell so we enjoyed sharing our adventures with them. There were also some cool Swiss guys who had been touring all over the USA in a van and two Finnish students on an exchange in Mexico. Alex and I have only had each other for company, and whilst we are great friends, it was excellent to hang out with such a diverse group of people for a while. We had a lot of fun and feel refreshed ready to leave the coast and head into the mountains to the west of Mexico City.
