It's time to go home and find out how bad I screwed up my ribs. Hopefully,  just a week of rest and I'll be good as new.  Leaving Durfort Several of these bridges today Moissac Tonight's couscous

I'm sitting in the Guadalajara Airport - got another hour and a half before my flight to Dallas, Texas. From there, I fly to Madrid and then on to Barcelona.   Unfortunately, I'm guessing that I only slept 2 hours last night, so I'm already exhausted. The airport p.a. system is super loud and annoying.  No way to catch a few zzz's. Not to mention the fixed armrests on the seating that keep people from stretching out.
