Hotel, motel, holiday Inn - Veracruz

Super windy tonight. So we dashed from the camp spot and found a hotel to stay in (Holiday Inn)

If you watch the video you can see the wind at the spot we had planned to camp in. Before deciding it wasn't for us and finding a Holiday Inn in Veracruz.

Veracruz is a port town where some people ship their trucks into Mexico to avoid doing the USA and Canada.
It wasn't the place for us, but it did mean we had done some extra distance driving today so we could miss out a stop one night and make some more distance tomorrow towards Playa del Carmen.

Thankfully tonight only cost us around £8 in taxes as we had a free reward night on hotels.com from booking various hotels during our trip. The reward nights are our "rainy day" nights. And windy nights are as good as a rainy day.Read more
