Mazatlan Day#1: Mega Superstore

Okay. We made it to Mazatlan. The weather is awesome. Humid but a mild 31 degrees. Finally some summer sun after a cold miserable spring back home.

Aside from the fatal shooting a couple of days ago (June 18) about 10 blocks from the hotel, it's perfect. E and I walked to Mega (the Mazatlan equivalent of Superstore). I think we might have been the only ones walking outside today....weird. People don't seem to do a lot of walking around here. Not sure if that's because tourists are inherently lazy or it's just plain crazy to be walking around in the midday sun.

I bought Crocs today, something I told myself I'd never do. All because the flip-flops I brought from Vancouver failed and started to disintegrate due to the heat on our way to Mega. Now I'm the proud owner of the ugliest pair of rubber shoes known to man. Oh well at least they're comfortable. And surprisingly airy.

Fingers-crossed that day 2 will be just as safe and wonderful.

Go Mexico Go. Congratulations on winning the Gold Cup in Soccer over the US!
