Yes, it's true. We residents live in constant fear of the Topecabra.

I have tried to slay the Topecabra by hitting them with both my bike and the Suburban at 50 mph. They are tough and I failed as they seem undaunted. I have given up on that method and will need another approach.

The website lies. It was after noon when I went by there. I may take another swing at it tonight. My wife is holed up in the hotel room. I think she had a bad piece of lettuce on a sandwich yesterday. Sick all night, in bed all day today, but feeling better now. I'm on my own for dinner.

Last week I was at Don Pedro's in Sayulita, just up the road. Go there if you can.

Spent 4 hours flicking the bike from side to side , rattling up and down through the 1 st four gears. These roads are some of the best I have ever been on! A bit of wet mud in a few corners may have caused an " unsafe " condition : Mex 85 come on........

OK, I did go by there this evening and the results are mixed. The wings were very good !
They only had two microbrews available as they dumped the others down the drain when they didn't meet expectations. The had an IPA and some kind of Serrano Chile lager. I am not
a fan of IPA's so I can't address that one. I did sample the Serrano Chile stuff and it wasn't bad. I couldn't drink a whole glass of it, though. I am not really a fan of microbreweries in general as I think they screw up most beer. They say that next week they hope to have some of their other beers ready. I'll go by and see. It is a nice little bar with a restaurant upstairs. Service was friendly and prompt.

Go check out El Sotano de las Golondrinas and Xilitla. I stayed at the Posada El Castillo and loved it. Expensive though. Have fun Carrie.
