Cooling it in Mazatlan

Day 25 – Mazatlan April 27, 2008

Up early and out walking by 8am down the main inland road paralleling the beach. We were looking for place to get a cup of coffee. Eventually we came across the Panama Restaurant and Bakery... obviously a very popular breakfast spot. Even though it had a significant North American influence, it was popular with many Mexicans. The food and service was good. It was one of the first places that we had been in where there was a sense of urgency. The staff really hustled. It is a bit too much like "Dennie's" though.

We have been putting on plenty of kilometres over the past few days. Not on the bikes but on the sandals! The main beach (Playa Norte) is about 5 K long. There is a promenade the full length and then another couple of kilometres south to the Playa Sur.

The afternoon was spent swimming and drinking beer at Carlos’s place on the beach.
