Xalapa (Jalapa) Mexico

Cosmopolitan city driven by local university crowd. A misty city in the mountains with coffee houses galore and a night life musical scene.

Hot water all day here! At noon it is warm enough to try a shower (no heaters in Mexican cheap hotels).

I try to explain in Spanish why I support them and not the Burger King conglomerate next door that is bent on destroying the local restaurants of the world. They just stare at me.

About $4.50 buys me a coke and enough of this dish, chicken, pablano, onion and mushroom to fill 10 taco shells. Melt in your mouth good!

Next stop, hotel to pick up my bags stored in the office and to the station for a 2 hour bus to Veracruz. Wonder if I will find warm weather (sneeze, sneeze)?
