The team is heading to the "Mango Stand" for lunch. The "Mango Stand" is a favorite stopping point for the team between Matamoros and Tampico. It works out that they reach there about lunch time, it is about the only place on a long, long road of nothing, it is dusty and windy at the top of a hill, has a few outside tables so they can pull out their road side lunch, relatively clean "banos"/bathrooms (always make sure someone has enough pesos as these are "pay as you go" banos!)...and some of the most delicious fresh squeezed mango juice ever! Mango juice is pretty thick, but it sure hits the spot. I asked Ronnie to have a mango juice for Tony, Chas & I - but then told him he better not as he would need lots of "pesos" for the banos!
Next stop after this will be Tampico for dinner, dominoes, and sleep.
