Train Trip to Mazatlan From Ojinaga to Mazatlan Adventure
The writer and Dot Newsom recount a two week journey from Ojinaga to Mazatlan via the Chihuahua al Pacifico line with stopovers in Los Mochis and Chihuahua City. They praise Pullman seating and the Italian car, warn of May travel drawbacks, describe hotel rooms, the Shrimp Bucket café, La Siesta, La Copa De Leche, and a pianist, and note water shortages and crowded beaches in Mazatlan.
