San Louis Soyatlan

This is a flashback to the trip from Villa Corona to Hacienda Contreras. Norma and I were leading the way with Teresa, Derek and Cassia following in their much smaller Class B Van Conversion. As we passed through the village of San Louis Soyatlan on the south shore of Lake Chapala things got a little hectic. Here are some photos taken by Teresa from her vantage point behind us. Thanks for the photos Teresa!

Just driving along when… all of a sudden a bus passes you with about six inches to spare!

And into the narrow streets of San Louis Soyatlan!

Until finally the slightly potholed road to the RV park. They assure Sal and Barb the road will be fixed “next year” Winking smile

  1. We've done that route as well, and it's not fun with a motorhome. I haven't tried it yet, but I think it might be better to go through Teocuitatlan de Corona instead of San Luis Soyatlan.

    Something like this...(it is a link to a google map of the area)

    1. That does look like it is worth a look. But what is with the highway through the middle of two lakes? ;)

  2. Now that is what I call a driving adventure, NOT!

  3. So which road is worse, the Isla one or that one?

    1. The Isla road is the worst by a mile (8 miles) Contessa. The bad part of this one is not that long and careful steering can avoid most of the deep potholes.
