Llanteria

We managed to get a bolt in our tire while driving through a new development area outside of Loreto. We drove the 4 miles into town and stopped at the first llanteria (tire repair place) we found - a fancy one that also sold Firestone tires. The guys had our tire repaired and back on our truck in about 10 minutes and it cost us.....30 pesos - that's 3 USD. Unbelieveable. In the states - it would have taken an hour and cost us at least $25. Since we had no idea how much it would be we were quite taken aback and extremely pleased. John was giddy. I kid you not - he was so happy about the easy and cheap fix for our tire that he was fairly skipping. :)

I am working on a few posts right now offline - will have something interesting for you tomorrow!
