Road to nowhere

... as it is known as by the La Ropa walkers who frequent it every morning. I know one of the engineers working on the new road and he reckons it should be finished this year. Mind you he also said the same thing 2 years ago but at least they are woking on it now. Despite Rob's comments and Mexican reality check there will be some fabulous views taking in Playa Larga right down to the airport and Barra de Potosi.

Those views will be great until the high-rise condos and hotels block them. This road is part of the local crooked politicians' package to spur the development of a megaproject called "Punta Garrobo". Even though it will make access easier to some land we own in the area and thus increase its value, we would rather see this entire peninsula set aside as a protected park or ecological zone. We think the view is much prettier from a footpath looking through the vegetation than from a paved road overlooking cleared lots. Don't you?
