The Nomads

No Travel Day

Acapulco, Guerrera Province, Mexico

Temp: 35 degrees C

Sunny, Humid

We’re stuck here waiting for new tires to arrive and the bikes to get serviced. The new sneakers were supposed to come in at noon today or tomorrow….?

No luck there yet.

They can’t replace the worn brake pads either because it would take a week or two to order the parts, so we have to chance the next 2670 km with worn brakes and hope to have them replaced in Tucson Arizona! The dealer says we should just “not use them so much”!!! (Hmmm…The Sierra Madres all the way … and marginal brakes….)

We looked into some way to send stuff home to lighten the load but the cost was really prohibitive so we’re maybe going to try that once we get to the states.

Oh well…off to the beach!

this guy was selling fresh fruit on the beach

Then back to the hotel for a late afternoon nap, then off to the internet café, a late supper and a late walk down the front street. Still hot and humid at midnight…
