There has been lots of harassment by the police but nothing to bad. Last night was the first night I had something stolen here in Acapulco. I had Manny off of his leash for the night so he could move around. Someone snuck in late and stole his leash. I had my hiking boots with me though, so I just made a quick attachment with the laces from them. A lot of locals have been pretty cool. During the day I hang out in the same spot and just sleep most of the day while waiting for this money to get here. Tomorrow I will be going to the U.S. Consulate again and try to get my passport paper work rolling. I hope I can get that done and available withing a week or so. Tonight I`m going to check on a job at a club. They asked me if I would be interested in doing promoting for the club while I`m here. Not much going on other than that. I just sit and wait patiently. Peace and Love

One thing we grossly underestimated was the cost of gas down here. We had no problems crossing the border and the first few checkpoints without passports. We took highway 15 south towards Los Mochis, when about 25 miles north of Los Mochis we hit a Federal checkpoint. They told us without a travel permit to return to Nogales and obtain one or pay $3,000 pesos about $250 USD to continue. We had already ran out of gas money so we took a route through AgioBampo on a beach road where we got stuck in mud many times taking a day and a half to go about 15 miles around the Federal checkpoint. Come to find out, the guy that works at that checkpoint takes an hour off each day between 6am and 7am. So if your coming this way with no passport wait till 6am to go through the Fed check point north of Los Mochis. By the way, the reason we came with no passports is because it takes so long to get them in the states. Once we arrive in Oaxaca we can goto the Consulate and get one in a week! So we are now clear of all the checkpoints and have been camping out on the beach in southern Mazatlan. We plan on staying here a few days to spange/panhandle enough money to get to Puerto Escondido, Oaxaca. At the moment its costing about $500($40 USD) pesos per tank of gas, and we need about 4 or 5 more to get to our final destination. I’ll be uploading some pictures and such when we get to Oaxaca. We’ll be selling the truck there and getting a 3 bedroom apartment. My unemployment kicks in next week so I’ll have plenty of cash to fund getting a online store setup to sell local crafts on the net. Wish us luck and will chat with you all soon. ooohh yeah I have a skype voice mail at 504,322,3559.
