Trip to Oaxaca





Today we got up at a ridiculous hour and our taxi arived at 6:30 to take us to Puert Airport where we caught our two engined nine seater Cesna to fly over the mountains to Oaxaca city. At 5000 plus feet up as opposed to sea level where it's hot and steamy Oaxaca is in bright sunshine but fresh very breathable air. The flight was fun Penny and I sat on the floor! ..... well very low seats while everybody else got to look out of the windows. Our accommodation is excellent ..a two bedroomed suite with air-con and all modern comforts you could ..or should ask for.There's a bar just accross the landing ( in fact the pino colada has jusssshed arrived)

  3. I think the lurgy was brought on by some salad washed in water not fit for human consumption and my bodily alcohol content falling to dangerously low levels.
