Lagos de Moreno to Bucerias, we are home!

In the morning, I decided to walk the dogs while Harold made sure everything was secured in the car. Because we would be in Bucerias in the afternoon and expected t to be warm there, I wore shorts. It was fairly cool in the morning when I was walking the dogs. We went to the nearest area with grass. This also turned out to be in the area of two bus stops. There were probably 40 people waiting for the buses, mostly men. So here I was, the only gringa in sight, wearing shorts, with 2 dogs on leashes. Needless to say, I really stuck out in that crowd.
Once we got going, it was off to Guadalajara. On the way through the highlands Los Altos de Jalisco) it was extremely foggy. When you see the road signs for fog zone, they aren’t kidding. Once we got through Guadalajara we stopped for gas and at a 7-11 for coffee. It got sunny as we were crossing the mountains between the toll road and the road to Puerto Vallarta.
We arrived in Bucerias about 2:30 p.m. Joann and Lucila were at the house to meet us. Patricia arrived soon after and they helped us unload the car. Finally after all the planning and organizing, we are here!
We put away some of our things and divided out what we have brought for others. Harold and I went by Luis and Monika’s house to see if they were home but they weren’t. We stopped at Gigante for some groceries then went to La Fabula in Pitillal for pizza. After putting away the groceries and eating our pizza it was time to end another long day.

Wow! I still can't believe you guys have done it. It must be an incredible (and incredulous) feeling to be in your own house in Mexico.
