The Talisman Bridge, home to "the sketchiest boarder crossing in the world." The Guatemalan side is pretty chaotic, with lots of people approaching you and asking for money. At least customs here is a breeze.
The fountain at the Zocalo (town square). We found a good vegetarian restaurant near here. There were also several Chinese restaurants, but we had already experienced at least one version of "Mexican" Chinese. Later on there was a free concert with dancers in the little performance area. Lots of locals were out on the town on a Saturday night. It felt like a pretty safe place, with all the children running around.
Subcomandante Marcos watches over us. Tapachula is at the Southern tip of Chiapas, the state where the indigenous uprising, Ejército Zapatista de Liberación Nacional (EZLN), received international attention in the 1990s.
A statue apparently inspired by the Manneken Pis fountain in Brussels. The boy in this statue appears to be a few years older.
Heather does not appear to be too happy to board another Mexican airplane.
Thank you for your attention, more adventures to come!
