Up at 6:00. I had a bad night with a headache probably too much sun the day before. After breakfast, we hopped on the bus to the airport. This is where we said our goodbyes to Pancho and gave him his hard-earned tip.
Rosalie, Martina and I got lucky again to be in the Sky Priority section. They even told us that we could use the VIP lounge. Well, la-di-da. We had a four-hour layover in Mexico City so that was a better and more comfortable way to while away the time. The rest of our party were quite envious.
We found the lounge and ordered a drink. It was all free including fantastic WiFi; all we had to do was tip the waiters. I had a couple of rum and cokes and Rosalie had lunch (purchased) and wine. I think we will be looking into this way to travel a little more closely. It may cost more but it’s way more convenient and comfortable.
Our flight was due to leave at 5:05 pm so went to stand and look at the departure board at 4:00 pm to find our gate number. It finally went up at twenty to five. After a mad rush to find the gate, we had to stand another hour to board. Needless to say, we were late getting to Manzanillo.
A taxi had been arranged for us and Martina. After dropping Martina off in Barra our driver was not happy with all the puddles he had to drive through to get to our place. The poor guy will have to wash his car again. I would have liked to give him an extra tip but had no more change.
The next day, I was feeling not so good with a cough, sneezing and a runny nose. Rosalie swore it was Covid and wanted me to go for a test. I thought it was allergies and was proven correct when it cleared up soon after taking an anti-histamine. Omar came to say “Hola” and we showed him some photos he was quite enthraled with them.
Incredible experience, but now glad to be home. So endeth this trip. I wonder what’s next?
What next???? More adventures for you two 😍🤗
Sounds like a wonderful time! Only thing better is if we could have been with you! Cheers!
