That's the same bathroom mi esposa and I used after our stop in El Rosario, not a problem for me but mi esposa is still a bit self conscious about going on the side of the road....but she's getting better at it. Maybe that El Rosario bathroom is a blessing in disguise....

that bathroom in Batopilas ...where was that ??? we had anice one but it sure didn't look anything like that one !!

FYI at Antonio's pemex, the alternate bathroom is at the hotel and it is to the left of the counter in the reception area. easy as pie to get to it.

My wife made a pit/pee stop in eastern Oregon once, somewhere between Baker City and John Day on Hwy 26. A rattle snake changed her mind. :biggrin:

Blanca, Remember this place about a kilometer before the bridge into town? It is somehow connected to the Margarita Hotel in Creel. It was empty.

He will be a while. He is still trying to figure out what agriculture inspection points are.

Here I am... first time reading this thread (8pm+ Mon.), as I had no interest in reading about somebody remodeling 'their' bathroom... Note to the original post in this thread, put 'El Rosario Pemex' in the title of your thread and more folks might be interested in reading it.

I have no answer other than it's Mexico.. and if any of you think things happen fast down there, well.. I have some land I don't own to sell you!

The last time I was in El Rosario was July 4th weekend, 2011... and we had a room at the Baja Cactus Motel (do you want to see the photos again?)... which still has to be about the nicest places to stay for under $40 (even over $40) along the Baja highway... so we didn't go at the station before driving home.

As for doing what Baja Blanca said... by all means...,. that is what it is there for. The Pemex toilet gets used by bus loads of people, and no way can it be the same as the bathroom in the motel lobby.

Just fyi, I have been unable to talk with Antonio for several months... emails are unanswered and he didn't return a call I placed for him at the front desk a few weeks ago... You Nomads are on your own... :yes: :lol:

You all have been invited by Antonio to use the motel lobby bathroom, so do it. :cool:

the nicest place OVER $40????

????

let's get back on topic: really, the bathrooms at baja cactus are ABOMINABLE, but so are many bathrooms in mexican gas stations,... but there is no excuse for any owner to present such bathrooms to the public, other than the owner thinks bathrooms don't matter in the customer EXPERIENCE.

So, are you experienced?
Have you ever been experienced?
Well, I have

Let me prove you...

Trumpets and violins I can hear in distance
I think they're calling our names
Maybe now you can't hear them, but you will
If you just take hold of my hand

Oh, but are you experienced?
Have you ever been experienced?
Not necessarily stoned, but beautiful...

:lol::lol::lol::lol:

If it's anything like the new ones along the TJ/Ensenada toll road it will be worth the wait. These are gorgeous and feature all the latest high tech fixtures, etc.
