We are back at the Holiday Inn in Mexico City. Had a very pleasant dinner last night with the Bishop, stayed at the Hotel Mexico in Xalapa (pronounce the "x" like an english "h" and you'll get it right). Bishop came to see us off at 9:30, then we made a round of the way trip to the airport passing by the port of Veracruz. Got two lighthouse photos (saw a 3rd, but it was on the wrong side of the van) and posted them at http://lighthousesrus.org/theAmericas/MexicoE.htm#MX17.
Got in here easily and the only real problem is the wireless is pretty unreliable. I had to walk around the hotel with my drink in hand to find a spot where I could write this and sip that.
We get up at 5:15 tomorrow take the shuttle at 5:30, leave at 7:30. We tried to check in online, but can't do that for a variety of reasons, so we wanted plenty of time at the airport.
Next post might be from Atlanta.
