California USA, Mexico, Guatemala & Belize This is my journal for my next trip from 17 March 2008 starting in LA, San Francisco, San Diego then down into Mexico. Will now be going to parts of Guatemala and Belize.

Arrived in the border of Mexico yesterday but had to wait until last night to take a bus to Puerto Penasco.  Puerto Penasco is pretty but bit of a tacky American tourist destination so intend on staying here long but will move on when I get a long awaited sleep tonight!!!  Thinking of heading to Guaymas tomorrow.  The people in Mexico so far have been so hospitable and go out of their way to help you.  Im struggling a little with the Spanish at the moment but it should be fine after a few days once I get back into it - they speak English in Puerto Penasco anyway.
