Up at 0600 morning routines, then off to the bus stop. The bus (collectivo – small van) got us close then we walked a couple of blocks. Somewhere in here I realized I had left my full cup of coffee on the boat, bummer! The ride to Guadalajara was uneventful, smooth and comfortable. A newer bus, with good AC. Then we had about a half hour wait for the bus to Tequila, smaller, older not as comfortable but still pretty good.
We got to Tequila and walked to our hotel. About a half mile.
Pretty nice, but interesting water system. The toilet seat was warm, because the water was hot in the tank. When we took a shower, the water was hot or hotter, cold was not an option.
While there was a pool, it was not clean.
We walked into town for dinner. Very nice. Reneé had seafood spaghetti, I had coconut shrimp with an Habanero Mango sauce.
To drink we had an imperial stout from Minerva a Mexican craft brewery.
There was a political rally in progress. Which dominated the square. Then back to our room and bed. There were several “train whistles” overnight.
This town appeared to have more money than most of the places in Mexico we have seen.
Nicer, cleaner, better paint and stucco. It’s an old town, 494 years.
