Los Mochis

25 47.83 N, 108 59.45 W

This morning after it got light you could see large planted fields, including sugar cane and corn. The bus stopped several times during the night. Police or inspectors would look at every one on the bus. Sometimes they would ask for someone's identification. No one was ever asked to get off the bus so I am not sure what was going on or who they were looking for. The bus stopped at Tepic, Mazatlan, Culiacan, Guamuchil and Los Mochis.

We arrived around 8:00 am to an empty bus station and caught a taxi to the Plaza Inn Hotel so we could get some breakfast and a nap. Reg and Phoebe took a taxi from Topolobampo where they left their boat to join us.

Unfortunately as we were walking to the front of the hotel to meet them, Rich slipped on the wet marble sidewalk and hurt his ankle. We hope it is just sprained so we are putting ice on it and he is keeping it elevated.

We had dinner at a restaurant in the hotel. We were the only customers. It was a little spooky but the food was great.

Tomorrow we will head to Barranca Del Cobre, the Copper Canyon
