Mexico
Stopped at a local fruit stand down the road and bought / tipped tons. They then seemed really concerned about us going down the road to turn left onto the 120. With very broken Spanish, and three very concerned people trying to speak to me very unsuccessfully through google translate, what I got out of their message was either a lot of cartel around here, especially at this intersection, or corrupt policia waiting to hand out an infraction to us because of our trailer possibly? They nodded at all three words “corrupt policia”, “cartel” and “infraction”…. They even went to the length of insisting they escort us on a side street to avoid that intersection. 👀 We followed them cautiously. Added the marker to the intersection and a picture. The side street wasn’t super nice with our trailer, but it was doable very slowly.
Why? By checking in after you’ve visited a place you let others know this place is still functional. You can also add or correct any information.
