Leaving San Miguel

We said our goodbye's and left San Miguel de Allende. We really enjoyed our American neighbours, Bob and Mary. They are full time RVers who have a motorhome based out of the USA and another motorhome in Europe. Their time is split with Winters in the USA and Mexico and the Summers in Europe. We had fun watching the American Primaries with them. They are Hillary supporters and we are Obama backers (not that we have a vote). Aside from that we found that we think quite a bit alike on most issues! Nice change to meet progressive Americans and it just proves that there are some out there!

With all the side trips we had been in San Miguel three weeks. When we returned from our trip to Veracruz, we found that the wind had blown our StarChoice dish over and broken it! We are now dependent on finding a place to park beside another Canadian with StarChoice. I have a sort of plan to repair the broken dish with a wedge of 2 X 4, a lag bolt and a lot of glue. It should work in theory but the angle of the arm has to be just perfect in order to have the reflection from the dish hit the right spot.

Anyway, so long San Miguel and now to begin the slow trip North. Next stop Zacatecas!
