Spent a night in a cute little town near the beginning of the Barrancha del Cobre (Copper Canyon) called El Fuerte. The people there were so friendly and helpful and there were not many tourists. When I got off the bus I asked a girl and her grandmother for directions and the girl ended up insisting that she showed me where the hotel was!!
Today I left El Fuerte on the train and have not long arrived in a little town called Creel. As it is not very big here will prob head to Chihuahua tomorrow (excuse the spelling) and yes it is the same name as the dogs. Apparently they were first found here but they are not sure as to where the dogs came from and think that maybe Spanish settlers first brought them here!! I feel like I am in the wild west of Mexico here!!
