Here are some pics of our recent trip to Mazatlan. We left on Dec 1 flying through Salt Lake city where we spent 3 hours sitting on the tarmac in a severe snowstorm. Had to refuel because we ran out of gas before taking off. Got deiced for the first time flying. Arrived at Mazatlan way late and had to sort out getting to the time share ourselves.
