    Bus Trip to Guadaljara

    Filed under: Guadalajara; Tagged as: bus trip, bus trip ETN, ETN, Guadalajara, roadside memorials

    As mentioned in a previous post, I decided to take the ETN bus to Guadalaja. The lunch was nothing to write home about, but the bus lived up to it’s advertising. It was roomy and comfortable, easily the best bus I’d ridden on since arriving in Mexico.
