Road Trip to San Miguel (7)

El Pegaso San Miguel


We made it! Web put on over 3,400 to the Clampett mobile. For a 2001 Tribute, loaded to the gills with our stuff, she ran like a top averaging somewhere between 25 and 28 MPG at speeds of 75 to 90 miles per hour, hour after hour.

We arrived in San Miguel in the sun at 4:30 local time, having spent 8 hours driving. Going through customs and getting the car permit were a piece of cake. It just took three hours. We hit Bridge One at 5:30am,  It's not an easy place to navigate. We made some false starts, but the girly navigator (Bev) got us all the way here.

First thing we did was go out to and have pizza for Bev and pasta for me.This morning we awoke to the sounds of maybe a dozen different birds, singing in the morning sun. The bells called Catholics to prayer, and we thanked God for the safe trip, our health, our friends, this beautiful city,and our marriage. This morning coffee at El Cafe de La Mancha
