past Villahermosa to Cecil's surprise


A 200 mile trip took 7 hours. We voted to go right through VH where the dry campground was anything but and 2 people got stuck on the way there. VH has a 1/2 million people and the traffic at 10:45 on a Tuesday stunned me. Women are still in dresses here. A lot of culture here and it's an oil rich area.
We motored on to the Suspension bridge, and camped in the circle at the bottom around the large gold statue of 2 young men. They are to commemorate the workers who were killed during the building of this structure. Had a pleasant afternoon relaxing in the sun. It struck me, here we are retired and now here we are, sleeping under a bridge!!!
