Time to say goodbye to my favorite lady at the corner restaurant across from the hotel. Please come back to our town she says.

Ladies at the Hotel Parque are not sad to see me go; maybe one less to clean up after.

Saddest goodbyes go to the family at the back street pharmacy; so similar to Andy of Mayberry, I think I'll miss this group the most.

One hour later I land at the Veracruz bus station. This young lady sitting near me is super nice and says no she is not Selma Hayak's sister.

She is headed back to her parents home in Cordoba.

Our busses leave withing 5 minutes of each other. We say our friendly goodbyes as I head out for 10 long hours to San Cristobal de las Casas.
