No transportation tomorrow

Yes, there were minimal combis and taxis going to Ixtapa or Coacoyul today, Tuesday, January 23. Being completely unaware, I picked today to shop at La Bodega. The few combis running (ex. Limon, Esperanza, Infonavit, La Union) were packed to the rafters! (Saw a young dude fully outside the combi holding on to the grab bar!) Taxis were scarce; a lady told me that they were charging double rate for local rides. No way to verify but the usually full taxi line outside Bodega was empty and rides back to Centro was a crapshoot.

I felt bad for the locals who depend on combis and taxis to go to work, shopping, medical appointments and more. They looked helpless. Me? I needed the exercise so I just (involuntarily) walked. Hope that the "strike" is gone tomorrow.
