We made it to Catemaco, a small town on a lagoon. The town is famous for its brujos, male witch doctors. We spent 2 nights camping on the lagoon and one night in the jungle at the Nanciyaga that hosted likes of Mal Gibson, Sean Connery and numerous Mexico celebrities it has a famous mud bath and mineral water pool. The town is full of hungry police that stop us twice with the second time trying to get money from us for not having plates on the front but we got off with just a warning.
