Heading South- finally!

We are finally set to leave the US, first beginning in Mexico!!

As for the last few weeks…..
We definitely spent more time in Nebraska than planned; we took some extra time on (international) insurance issues.
Unfortunately, there hasn't been much to update thus far but have tickets to leave on Friday (11/11), so we are VERY happy about that! It was good to be able to spend so much time with my mother (been years since anything like that was possible), and Anna went to Russia for the first three weeks.
For those interested, a few cities we plan to visit or pass through in Mexico include:
Nuevo Laredo, Saltillo, Monterrey, Zacatecas, Guadalajara, Puerto Vallarta, Barra de Navidad, Melaque, Playa Maruata, Manzanillo, Ixtapa, Zihuatanejo, Puerto Escondido, Puerto Angel, Huatulco, Tehuantepec, Tapachula.
On the way back from Central America, our route may include: Queretaro, San Luis Potosi, Mexico City, Camitan, Palenque, Minatitlan, Puebla, San Cristobal de Las Casas.
On the flip side, Central America has been rocked by one hurricane after another, and it seemed a good idea not to rush down. Hopefully things will be better weather-wise now. If we hear from travelers that it is unwise to go, we'll just hang out in Mexico longer. Personally, I feel like a year wouldn't be enough to fully explore Mexico, but of course, that isn't the focus of this trip.
That’s about all for now, lots of last-minute things to take care of before tomorrow morning.
