Driving hwy 200

Just a quick note to say thanks again and give a quick update.

I'm back in Baja now and making my way home. Everything went well. I did find myself running short of time to drive the coast and the Hoy No Circúla rules made getting around Mexico City to the north a hassle and time consuming. I knew about the rules based on license plates, but I didn't know that tourist passes are only available for newer vehicles and that they had started enforcing driving restrictions in Puebla too. Annoyingly that meant flying the last leg to be in Oaxaca on time. That was my plan c after plans a and b didn't work out.

Anyhow, I had a lot of fun and I'm glad I did it.

Sadly after I got back to Mazatlan I learned they'd had a night of violence while I was away in Patzcuaro. https://elpais.com/mexico/2024-10-28/la-guerra-entre-el-mayo-y-los-chapitos-alcanza-a-mazatlan-la-joya-turistica-de-sinaloa.html

Stay safe all.
