Costa Esmaralda to Veracruze

Another travel day. We went 123 miles and it took 5-1/2 hours. But we did have to go thru the large city of Veracruze which took a good hour due to traffic. John is really struggling with the slowness of travel. It really is hard to "follow the leader" when it takes forever for the speed to build up from the front of the pack to the back of the pack and then we have to slow down - AGAIN!

The campground is on the beach about 10 miles from town but it is really nice. We walked 2 miles down the beach with another couple to a little village, had a margarita, and then walked back to find we were having a pot luck dinner with the group. Beautiful weather! Showers are cold and the electricity is real bad -- it clicks on and 20 seconds later it is off. Makes it really hard to dry your hair.
