Mexico Flexico

March 2, 2010 by Rachel Chapman

One of the things about living in Mexico, or anywhere overseas, is that you have to be flexible.  We set the dates for our trip several months ago, because we were taking a dentist from the US with us to treat dental needs in the village.  And, we had to work around our dentist friend’s schedule.

So, we picked him up at the airport and headed for the village.  We drove into this:

El Aguacero

And, when we realized that the ugliest part was moving toward us and toward the area where we were hoping to drive, we turned around and went back to a coastal town.  Before we got there, it started to rain and it down-poured for a good 4-5 hours and then drizzled the rest of the day.  It was A LOT of water!  With that kind of rain, we knew the roads would be in bad shape for the next few days.

After 3 days of waiting, we made it into the village safely!
