Gave up on fishing right now and headed to the beach!!

 On IOverlander we found Playa Bonita Beach House in Las Glorias to camp.  It was rustic but we camped right on the beach.  We met a real nice couple - Isabella and RĂ³mulo’s that were camping right next to us. Isabella is from Quebec and Romulo from France. We enjoyed visiting with them over the 3 days. We may run into them south of Mexico City. We did cook breakfast and dinner and ate at this restaurant on the beach one afternoon.











Left Copper Canyon and headed to a campground near a waterfall!

We realized as we were driving in this part of Mexico it is in a severe drought. There were some wild fires burning and you could see a lot of areas where the fires had been. When we got to our camp spot we found out no water so no waterfall. All was good as we had time to re-organize the car. We are having to adjust to this type of living.
After 1st night of camping we left to go to a lake to fish. We were in the mountains, one switchback after another, and up 1 mountain and down again. Have no idea how many mountains we went up and down. It was maybe 130 KM’s. Took at least 6 hours to do those 130 KM’s. I was not a good navigator yesterday. We passed the road to turn south on. We drove about 20 KM’s passed, so 40 KM’s total on a twisty up and down mountain road. I believe Clarence has forgiven me. LOL














Our first place to visit in Mexico - Copper Canyon . This is larger than the Grand Canyon. We rode the cable car across the canyon. Yikes, don't look down!





























 

Our original video of the car is to big will have to redo.
