December 8th continued

Hi again,
Have arrived in Vera Cruz.....flights were all good. Aviasca is the airline we've used the past couple of times. Super cheap prices and really good air travel. More than average room on the plane it seems and the service is really good. Even on our second flight today from Mexico City to Vera Cruz (only 40 minutes) they managed to give everyone a bag of peanuts and a drink....and.....you can have anything you want to drink. Alcohol or non alcoholic for free :)

Got some good info from the desk clerk at the hotel the taxi driver found for us tonight. Lilliana (that's the desk clerk's name) has suggested a little town about 120 km south of here on the coast where we'll be happier as Vera Cruz is lovely I'm sure but....it's also just another big city and we're both looking for a cozier atmosphere than we're likely to find here. Here, we're only going to be able to find restaurants etc to eat in whereas in the little village we're more likely to be able to find taco stands on the corner for a couple of pesos etc.

Will touch base when we have access again.
