Monday – On to Oaxaca

Last move before we head home. Onwards to Oaxaca.

We have met so many wonderful people – Canadians escaping their winter and young Europeans being away for months. Without exception the latter group are all heading south, through Guatemala and Belize to South America.

They are obviously travelling on a budget, so 13 hour overnight coach trips are not uncommon. For us, a 5 hour day coach journey from Puebla to Oaxaca feels like a challenge.

Actually it was fine, although using a loo at 60mph presents its own challenges. But some of the scenery (again at over 2000m was fantastic.

And arrived in time to enjoy our first evening in Oaxaca. Everyone we’ve met loves it, so here’s hoping.
