Ok so Mexico is offlically trying to kill me... or at least the state of oaxaca is. The night before we left Oaxaca me and ricky got ill, the 8 hr+ journey to Zipolite.....still ill and suffering from lack of toilet stops. Up we go into the biggest fecking set of mountains ive ever been to waiting for the mid way stop at San Jose Del Pacifico where we were due to do quad biking.

Hello again! I'm currently in Oaxaca, midway down the centre of mexico.
