On Friday, Berni and I made our way to Mazatlan in Mexico. We got up at five in the morning to catch a 6 o’clock bus from Belize City to Chetamul, Mexico. It was significantly cheaper to fly out of Chetamul than Belize City. I don’t know what I was expecting for a bus station. There was no place to buy tickets, it was one room with a few food stands. You actually paid on the bus. The bus acted like a local bus within the city so we made many stops. Here are some of the pictures. 

From Chetamul we flew to Mazatlan with one stop over in Mexico City. Dan and Berni have a delightful apartment in the old town of Mazatlan . Last night we went out to dinner with an Israeli family that Dan had met. I had a delightful conversation with the wife and we exchange phone numbers. The family has been traveling for almost 2 years with two children that are now aged 12 and 9. I hope at one point to be able to meet up with them again in Israel. it is carnival time in Mazatlan. Tonight we’re going to watch the parade. Berni and I have a cooking class on Tuesday and then I fly home on Wednesday.
