Guanajato

Absolutely amazing!!!
after a long busride, 6 hours, Vallarta-Guadalajara a dropdead boring ride, they showed american B-horror movies sincronised into spanish all the way, and the bus wasn't as comfortable as the one from Mex.city-Guadalajara. But okay i survived, i didn't really wanted to leave, i had a great time in Sayulita and just found the rythm, getting up as the first in the morning, make coffee, sit on the stairs smoking a cigarette, looking at the waves. Then the guys got up, together we had some breakfast they went surfing and i grabbed my book and a towel, layed in the sun for a while reading and by then they guys finished their morning surfing session we had a few cold beers on the beach went back to the house made a big lunch a little siesta and then the afternoon session, which was pretty much the same as in the morning... we came back to the house, made a fantastic dinner... played cards, had a few beers, smoked cigarettes, went to bed relatively early and the next day the same all over again... GREAT!!!

Anyway i really had to leave, to get moving otherwise i wouldn't have time to get to Oaxaca and Puerto Escondido without spending almost all my time in a bus non-stop like this i can make a few pit-stops and enjoy what i see on the way and still spend a little time on the beach in Puerto E. So i took the bus from Puerto Vallarta to Guadalajara, nothing exiciting about that, it was long and boring! arrived at the bus station around midnight hoping there was a connecting bus. there was luckily, actually there was several, so i found the cheapest which happened to be with "Primera Plus" the ones with the best busses!!! so happy to have a cheap ticket and knowing i didn't have to spend the night at the station, i started looking for something to eat, by then i was so hungry i could have eaten a horse, all i could find was nescafe and chips... it didn¡t do me any good, but i maneged to fall asleep even before we where out of the gigantic bus station, i got woken up by a friendly guy telling me i was in Guanajato (GTO)!!! NICE! so eh I knew that the bus station was a bit outside GTO so i got a taxi, a freindly chaffeur telling me all about the sites at 5o'clock in the morning... many of the streets is not big enough for cars so he dropped me off in place where there was supposed to be some hotels around, there was i found 2, but unfortunately there was nobody answering the door... so i had to walk around a bit more and luckily at last after about an hour i found one and the guy at the reception was awake!!!
I slept for a bit, freezing!!! GTO is about 2017m above sealevel in the mountains!!! need i say more? no? i woke up to find that the battery in my watch is dead. and that the door to my room is in the middle of the bar of the hotel... hehe maybe that's why it's so cheap? but then again i don't care, it's clean, and i sleep as a rock. so i don't think it0ll bother me too much!
well i've now walked around here in daylight, it's beautifull... very nice place and hardly any tourists, execpt for a few retired people... Very Nice!!!
I was on my to Museo de Mummias... Apparently all of them is from the nearby cemetary, it only takes about 5-7 years to be mummified here and if your family can't pay for it, they'll dig you up and put you in a museum... sounds crazy, and i'm not sure what to think about it, but i gotta do something before i go look for that roof terasse there's supposed to be at the hotel and my book...
Anyway if i find i'll let you know how it was... The musuem of mummies... uh a bit creepy!
