Todd is wearing the gas hose around his neck.
View from our motel.
Dennis and Vern told us which route to follow to Puerto Vallarta but there is a new autopista (toll road) which opened recently sending us further south and missing the turn off. No problems except we had not seen a gas station in awhile. We ended up on a really nice "bike" road headed toward the Pacific and San Blas. Headed south and realized we needed gas to make it to P.V. There is a brand new Pemex station waiting to be opened but two tourists from Vancouver told us it's been that way for some time now. They were staying in an ocean front RV park. With little fuel we found a small motel in Los Cocos. Some locals told us we could buy fuel by the gallon, so off we went walking to find some. The first man we asked was kind enough to drive us to the local lemonade type gas stand. We paid $5.00 for one gallon and borrowed the hose. Road the bike back for one more gallon of gas to make sure we could make it to the next large town. The locals are really nice and go out of their way to help. Our motel, El Delphin was ocean front for $50.00. Had the basics plus a pool. Lots of Mexican families at this hotel this weekend.
