Heading back out.
This was a beautiful guest house overlooking the river just outside of town. I met & spoke with the owners when I was on
my way into town. Artouro & Victoria. Nice people, they offered me a beautiful room for only $50 for the night. If I was
with my wife this would have been the place. Being on my own however I prefered to stay in town & that was only $20 which
was the average I spent for accomodation while in Mexico.
Stopped here & went for a swim in the river. It was very hot & so felt great.
So I had just come around the corner and find myself staring at the grill of a truck moving at high speed swinging to my side of the road coming round the corner. I swerved to miss him but then was blinded by the dust. Well you can see what happened, I ended up running into the side of the mountain.
Ouch!
Banged my elbow pretty good.
It was bloody, even with the fact I have armor on the elbows. Good thing!
It was a tough time getting back on the road.
The views were so spectacular!!!
Shrines are everywhere in Mexico.
Heading back up from Batopilas I will be heading for Sarafina to see more of the Copper Canyon
