Taking a break for lunch |
January 27 was a travel day from Guaymas to Alamos.
Pretty good route, but lots of topes (speed bumps). We saw plenty of “wild life” cows, chickens,
goats and a horse drawn carriage.
Our small
group of 3 Rigs decided to stop at PEMEX Station #4143 for fuel (they accepted
credit cards) and then have lunch.
As we were rolling out, we noted 9 more of our Adventure Caravan Rigs had already
rolled in or were rolling in on the other end of the huge PEMEX Station.

Our Police Escort into Alamos |
The excitement really began as we started going down one by
one every 5 minutes from PEMEX Station
#8117 to the Dolisa RV Park in Alamos. The entry was tight and narrow and quite challenging.
I told Carole, our Wagonmaster, I’d relieve her with
the red flag she was using to help our guests know where to turn into our park.
When I got
back to the street, there had been a new development. Carole said the local
Police were going to escort our Rigs down in small groups.
By this time, Lynn arrived by car while
#2 Tail gunner Clary was back at the PEMEX directing the action.
I snapped photos as the first police car came down the street leading 9 Rigs from our second group.
The police led all the Rest of the Rigs down to the Park entrance.
Lots of local people were watching.

Time to relax after a travel day |
After Happy Hour at Phil and Barb's Rig, with good munchies and
conversation about our day, we adjourned for a quick supper and headed with 12
others to the Alamos 2013 cultural festival.
We ended up watching a magnificent opera.
It was an enjoyable evening, something none
of us expected to be doing this evening...
