We dusk to Tuxtla Gutierrez, Chiapas state capital and the progress I made the decision to "manage" all night , to the coast of Oaxaca. So at about 9 we headed for Salina Cruz, Huatulco Bay pass and 5 am exhausted so I stopped in Puerto Angel where we take a nap for an hour to get to sleep on the beaches of Puerto Escondido.
Puerto Escondido and Zicatela famous beach in the Pacific coast is one of the favorite destinations in the world for surfing. Here come from all over the world to give color and warmth to this small city of Oaxaca. For us it just meant a place to rest after the "ordeal" of the previous night.
Oaxaca From here the road climbs up the Sierra Madre, amazing scenery, incredible views, incredible beat 5 hours of endless curves.
Oaxaca, beautiful city of impressive architecture, the square of the base, beer and tacos cooked in the arcades, the cathedral and the church of Santo Domingo, the mezcal in all its varieties that are sold everywhere but the best place to take it is certainly La Casa de Mezcal against Juarez market.
Juárez The market is now the culmination of the visit to the city, you can not pass without breakfast Oaxaca in any of their posts, a good homemade chocolate pastry and then dried meat or jerky and beans, pure delight. To top it off and if your stomach allows it grasshopper tacos (grasshoppers) fried with salt and lemon accompanied of a "peaceful" cold.
Before returning home to do two sites around Oaxaca pre-Columbian ruins of Monte Alban and the people of Matatlán where mezcal is produced. There we had the opportunity to see first hand how and where to get the precious liquor of the worm, with the invaluable explanation of Don Tacho and his nephew.
From Matatlán, back home across the Isthmus of Tehuantepec and again in the mountains of Chiapas to the state of Campeche, where we enjoy a well cooked sea bass off the coast of the Gulf of Mexico. In the afternoon, before arriving in Cancun obligatory stop in Valladolid (Yucatan) to try their famous sausage and other delicacies Yucatan.
