Asuneón Nochixtán, Oaxaca, México 29-9-2010

Odómetro: 17,439.7 miles

The sky cleared off, the sun came out and we said goodbye to Schmopical Storm Mathfuus. The roads through Chiapas and into Oaxaca are beautiful. The road hazards continued and my camera came to life for three more shots. As you can imagine, it made for hazardous driving. We had to detour around a number of bridges that had collapsed into the rivers below, but we were not otherwise held back too much. The little town of Asuneón Nochixtán was really quite fun. It is located in an area know for it´s mescal, a drink made of blue agave, just like Tequila. We had a taster and good laugh with the locals. The men in the local establishment were telling us how it is better than Viagra and the little old lady, the bar keep, stood behind them demonstrated the exact opposite. We couldn´t stop laughing and every time the drunks turned around she played innocent. It was really quiet the scene.
