Making our way to Uruapan
Today we woke up early and although we really were not expecting it, Maria had some breakfast ready for us. She also gave us two coin purses as a going away gift that we’re both already using. If that were not enough she gave us a ride to the bus station to make sure that we made it on time. We let her know we planned on making it back next week for the wedding so it made it an easy goodbye.
The bus ride to Uruapan was gorgeous. It feels more like we are going through Oregon than Mexico to me. Everywhere you look is lush green hills, lakes, and forests. Once we arrived we found a perfect hotel not too far off the town square.
After getting some dinner we made our way over to an internet café. I was able to locate the phone number and email of Ricardo Posada, who is the avocado grower mentioned in the about section of this web page. Tomorrow I’m going to give him a ring and see if we can meet up while we are in the area. Hopefully, he is not out of town, but considering the amount of avocado trees we saw driving into the city it shouldn’t be hard finding someone to talk to about the industry.
