Any other Delis on our route? Ajo, San Carlos, Celestino Gasca, San Blas, La Manzanilla.
This is our 4th, no, 5th, trip! Hard to keep track.
Last time we visited the wild beaches near Playa Maito, Jalisco. Wild country, beautiful, rough, beaches.
We should be somewhere down there until early March.
Hasta la Vista

How I envy you!! Haven't driven down for the last few years, but would love another road trip in one of our Delicas.
I love Mexico

Re: Nootkase heads for Mexico, Again
I guess I should have checked in when I got back...
Trip 5 went well, in the sense that nothing bad happened. We did have a tailgate issue. It was becoming harder to close, then I found one hinge was seized. It was bending, not hinging. Managed to get it off by burning a hole through the headliner with a red-hot table knife and removing the inside bolts. After torturing it with heat and hammer it worked well enough to get home. Got another from CC for $20. Different color, but who cares?
We'll most likely do #6 in January, unless we have a better idea...

Hope to see you again at "OUR" beach in La Manz. Haven't decided whether to fly or take my bus.nootkase wrote: We'll most likely do #6 in January, unless we have a better idea...
I haven't considered taking the Deli... Maybe I should cost it out.
Pls say "Hi" to Jackie for me
