Another hard one due to the heat and humidity; not as brutal as yesterday but 100% in the monte again: across the land bridge, south and east at the last turn, continuing east into the monte, around the southern charcos and north up the palapa road, past the shire three-way, across the inter-charco berm and north a spell to the swimming hole north of the shire, south and then west to the intersection, south down the main road to the cross-over and back home via the land bridge: ~8k. There were people, motos, 18-wheeler trucks, etc. and everyone was good. At one point two salt workers were more or less on our tails on bikes for a little more than a kilometer until we finally hit a good stretch and dusted them; nobody so much as sniffed at them. I scooped Elewah up just past the shrimpery coming home - there are too many people around for her to be poking around on her own. Once again swimming holes provided relief from the heat and humidity. Everyone behaved themselves and had a nice time.
