Totonaka Park in San Carlos
So I far have had three reports on this park. The first, from Lou Morris (thank you!) reported that there were great fluctuations in the electricity. The second, posted on the Zihuatanejo mess...

We are currently at Totonaka in San Carlos, and are just as happy as always. The park is clean, neat, and still has Jose as the friendly, helpful manager. The ownership has NOT changed, and yes, Joseph is a UCLA graduate.
As stated above, there was a new transformer installed that was defective, was replaced, and all is now back to normal.
We were told that there was a group of about 20 vehicles in during that time, many who were experiencing their first trip to Mexico, and they had a difficult time with the high voltage/no voltage.
Most seem to forget, or not know that the standard voltage in Mexico is 129, not 120 as is the standard in the US. When we plugged in, the voltage was 131, but as soon as we put the Sola Basic in line, we are at 122.
The WIFI?? I'm on it now, hooked up easily, and it has acceptable speed. In Yuma two days ago, I never could get on.
Unfortunately, it appears that Totonaka received some bad reviews that were simply a case of "things happen."
We'll enjoy our night here, and stay here again in the spring on our way north.
