I am guessing that many of you are familiar with the song “Horse without a name” as popularized by the rock group, America, in the early 1970s. Well, today I was taking a day excursion from the small Mexican Beach town of La Manzanilla to Tenacatita Beach, about 30 Kilometers to the north. When approaching a small roadside bridge, I saw a sign along the highway “El Puente sin Nombre” - in English that translates to Bridge without a name. In Mexico, all bridges along the highway have names but this one was nameless like the horse in the famous song. I made a remark in Spanish to the Taxi driver about this Bridge (and horse) without names and we shared a good laugh.
