Sunday, 21 February.
Almost didn't bother to bother with this post, it was pretty uneventful. Up at about 7:00 AM, got the pills into Tia without difficulty, breakfast, and once Tia got her breakfast (an hour after her meds) and we were on our way at 8:30.
Gillian had called to warn about the worst of the topes and the detour through one village as well as letting Art know the exact toll for the motorhome--252 pesos so he had the right change going through,
Fuel just before Barra de Navidad and he arrived at Puerto Vallarta Trailer Park at 2:15.
The site he had requested wasn't quite ready--they hadn't cut the overhanging coconuts--so he was put in another site "until tomorrow". Three or four days later the site was ready. Of course the move did not go without incident.
Backing into the site without a spotter, while watching that the right rear wheel did not hit the pad edge he "nudged" the base of a palm tree on the left rear. The corner that had been repainted in Zihuatanejo. This time though the metal skirt was bent. It looks to be a relatively easy repair. When under the rig some weeks later, looking for another problem (Post to come!) he noted that a weld had broken.
more to come in a bit.
