Leaving Tucson, Arizona, and south to Mexico, the temperature continued to climb until we reached 104 degrees and our skin is constantly moist. It is hot and 6 hours wet and seemed to drive forever. Just across the unguarded border in Nogales, Mexico assaulted us with the extreme differences. This was the experience Jacks first in Mexico to the radio needs to be off as experienced sensory overload of traffic, the people and chaos. There were no street lines, hence the mass confusion, we were fighting for a dusty road and tried to stay on the right side of the road. People were selling puppies and newspapers while waiting at a stoplight. storefronts and sidewalks were crowded with colored toys, flags, piƱatas, shirts and other tourist paraphernalia. In 15 minutes you could easily as we breathe through the madness and again on I-15 would take us to San Carlos.
Mexico must register your car so we stopped to buy a license for 180 days of a man who does not speak English or Spanish for we only passed the necessary paperwork and asked for $ 27.US. We the fate of form was in English so no translation was needed.
We continue along the path of bare desert to spend the gas station just strange – Some open some closed. As we near San Carlos, were glad to see rolling green mountains, blue water, a boat full of the Navy and not tourists. Travel in September meant that he had lost in the crowd of summer and the city and stayed with us locals. We stayed in Totonaka RV Park and was directly across the ocean. After setting up our tent and spread a bit we walked around the grounds to notice that they were the only residents of the 140 sites. There was mango, grapefruit and lemon trees that we have chosen for some fruit salads. They had a medium-size pool, full bathrooms with showers and laundry – we were in paradise. The sea was a fabulous indigo and endless sand stretched for miles and was peppered with lots of white shells. You can walk along the beach several miles and not see anyone except the odd local who tends to his beach house. When the day came to an end we settled on a restalounge "Charly's Rock for dinner and margaritas. Firstly, on the menu was a true taste of ceviche – an appetizer of minced raw fish cooked / marinated in lemon juice, cilantro, onion and tomato on top of a tortilla. We turn to some more fish tacos and margaritas. Our first night in San Carlos, Mexico was excellent. The moon rises over the mountains to cast a warm glow in the Sea of Cortez, the hot air, the sound of mariachis, the odd cockroach (called "Lobster" by staff) and daisies never done in a proper environment. That was until 1:00 am when we woke up to a massive tropical storm. thunder and lightning so powerful it blew out an electric power pole and line with a bang like a shotgun. The force of the storm collapsed the tent and we ran for cover to move night in the car to a complete tenting catastrophe. Everything was soaked and had to be chained to trees and bushes to dry, even the camera. We were tired and moody, but were saved by the growing sunlight spreads across the sky.
After a dry day, cycling and walking in the Marina Beach, that dropped the tent and gave it another go. Once again we have suffered another severe storm. However, this time we made tougher by holding store campaign upright for 3 hours, they would not be taken for a second night. We took turns holding the tent upright and Jack run outside with a hammer every time the stakes are let fly takes literally flying. It was another long, wet night disappointing. Weather desperate calls desperate measures and the following nights were spent in a small room with double bed wonderful. In hind sight we will select a room with air conditioning or at least a working fan as the room was quickly dubbed "the mud oven" by Jack.
After a great night of sleep they ventured into cactus land driving along a dirt road that led us to another beautiful beach and a 5 star hotel. We visited the hotel who wish our budget would such accommodations when we noticed a pizza at the end of the hall. Mexican beer, pizza and a couple games of pool was a great exchange so we spent the afternoon hanging around. Driving around San Carlos was very diverse, with the cactus fields, green mountains on the edge of the Sea of Cortes and the pristine white yacht ports Sporting line-making is an experience of visual pleasure. San Carlos is home to many domestic tourists but also many rich people who come to stay in a 5 star hotel. Before leaving the trailer park, exchanged photos and e-mail addresses with our host, Migel. Then to the neighboring city of Guaymas to return to charge food and gas.
Our next stop is the north along the coast to another city in the Sea of Cortez, Puerto Penasco.
