I arrived in Torreon, Mexico last night via Dallas-Fort Worth. The whole trip took only 5 hours, thanks to the new American Airlines newly established route from Evansville, IN to Dallas. My travel companions are Mr. Okura and Mr. Hayashi. It's Mr. Hayashi's first trip to Mexico.
Today's agenda included transit from Torreon to Monterrey and visiting 2 affiliated plants. The scenery along the way was really dynamic:
We drove through a desert between mountains. Joshua Trees, cacti and other vegetation really make you feel that you ARE in a desert. The mountains shoot up to the sky from the seemingly forever flat surface of the ground. Mieko, our interpreter told us that the region used to be the ocean bottom. I guess this is what the ocean bottom looks like with trees and cacti.
We visited the 2 plants both of which I found very interesting and educational. I took some pictures, but I can't show them for the confidentiality reasons.
We dined at a Japanese restaurant in Monterrey. We stuffed ourselves with all kinds of stuff. Yeah, I'm a happy guy.
And tomorrow, I will wake up feeling really smart, because I'm staying at Holiday Inn Express!
