La Penita RV park<\/h3>\n
\n\t

We have settled in to the RV park at La Penita for a week of much needed R & R for Sally and myself and exams for the kids after a bit of hustle and bustle to get here.\u00a0 We had to drive into the outskirts of\u00a0 Guadalajara to get diesel exhaust fluid.\u00a0 I had read that it was advisable to take spare fluid with you from old blog posts however I thought that major truck stations would carry it as there are now thousands of trucks requiring it.\u00a0 I was wrong.\u00a0 The Ram (now called fatso) will only run at 5 miles \/ hr if it runs out so the consequences of running out were fairly dire.\u00a0 As it is not required for vehicles in Mexico nobody had any idea what I was talking about at Gas stations and it doesn't translate well on Google either.\u00a0 After some research we eventually found an Autozone shop in Guadalajara the second biggest city in Mexico that carried it and was sort of on our route.\u00a0 From one extreme to another - if it isn't market centres it's big cities.\u00a0 Long stressful drive through the city and then down the mountains from 8,000 feet to sea level thankfully without incident but happy to finish.<\/p>\n

Now sitting on our deck overlooking the ocean.\u00a0 Laura has a new friend from a family even bigger than ours.\u00a0 They have driven down from Canada with a 43' 5th wheel and a Kenworth truck.\u00a0 Six kids so they need it.\u00a0 Erin the Mum is a school teacher and has offered to supervise Mack's exams so that is a relief.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>
