Ben here, sadly Jason had some problems this year in La Ticla,&nbsp; a bunch
of armed bandidos came into La Ticla with guns and stole a bunch of
stuff in tents, i didn't tell anyone till now, It was not that bad and
no one was hurt. I didn't get the whole story from Jason but i will
know more soon.<br>
<br>
Kind of sad... <br>

  <div>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Folks, I am forwarding you all this message because you all
need to know about this.&nbsp; Jack &amp; Michele are friends we met in
Mexico last year.&nbsp; They are from Portland, ON near Almonte.&nbsp; We saw
them in La Manzanilla when they stopped by our camp to say hello.&nbsp; This
situation could have been us as we traveled the same road just a week
in front of them.&nbsp; OK, things in Mexico are starting to look bad.&nbsp; We
are now on the Natchez Trail about two hours South of Tueplo, MS at the
public Library in Kosciusko, MS, the birth place of Oprah Winfry and
Charlie Musselwhite.&nbsp;

BAD NEWS&nbsp; We have been hijacked &amp; have nothing left but the clothes
on our back!&nbsp; THIS IS NOT A JOKE!!!<br>
We were leaving Rosies in Cd. Victoria&nbsp; and were about 1 hour away near
the km 57 where the road splits &amp; separates for about 1 mile or
2---near the lake.&nbsp; -The road was blocked&nbsp; and bandidos&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; with
guns and machine guns threw us out of our vehicles.&nbsp; We were travelling
with Dave &amp; Joyce.&nbsp; They took off with our trucks and campers.&nbsp;
Left us in the ditch.&nbsp;&nbsp; 5-6 truckers went by but refused to stop.&nbsp; The
Federales&nbsp; 3 cars just happened to come by 5 minutes later.&nbsp; Spent the
day at their office.&nbsp; <br>
We figured the bandidos cased us out at Rosies and let their gang know
we were coming.<br>
It was too well planned to be randomly done at 9:40 a.m..........<br>
We were not physically hurt but emotionally.......<br>
When you travel out of here, we recommend you travel behind a big truck
or doble remolque so they don.t have a chane to block the road.&nbsp; Or
else use another exit into US.<br>
And now the paper work has started.....not a very fast or easy business.<br>
&nbsp;<br>
We are still in Victoria.&nbsp; trying to get to Monterrey for passports,
etc.&nbsp; and flight out of MX.&nbsp; with 2 dogs.<br>
&nbsp;<br>
safe travels.&nbsp; We thank God we are ok.<br>
&nbsp;<br>
Michelle &amp; Jack<br>
Dave &amp; Joyce<br>
&nbsp;<br>
ps&nbsp; send this to all travelling in MX friends.<br>
