Sunday, 9 August - 6:30pm
We get the local bus to take us as far as possible to Matzalan old town centre, and we get dropped off 1km away from the hotel, so with 20kgs each on our backs we walk the 1km and get to Hotel Belmar - apparently this used to be John Waynes fav haunt - and well let´s just say it´s on it´s last leg. Note to self: No way would John Wayne get involved with that swimming pool - bright yellow with scum floating on the top.
We start the usual price negotiation and in walk our 3 Aussie mates (Craig, Shazza and Chaza- just made up those last two names) anyway, we pretend to be friends in order to get a better deal and go off to inspect the rooms on offer. Well, well, welll........the first room was threadbare, dark and smelt like someone had died in there, the second room was no better however bogen Craig takes the initiative and yells at the top of his voice "Yeah, it´s awwwwright ayyyyyyyeeeee, big beds, not bad, not bad at all!" The girls (including me) ignore him and we ask in broken Spanish to see more.
The other rooms are alot better and we agree to stay 3 night ($US90 for 3 nights), as do our fair dinkum mates.
