FACT: Hollie ’s is 5’7″, with red hair and fair skin. She also drove our tiny rental car around the small towns in Mexico*.  

FACT: The average height of a Mexican woman is 5’1″  . During our journey we didn’t witness one other woman driving. 

For much of our time exploring Mayan Mexico, locals (mostly children) stared at us. They were particularly awestruck by Hollie. I nicknamed her La Roja Diabla.

the legend grows of the 7 foot tall Ginger who drove Senor William across the Yucatan!

 *The car was manual and while I can try to drive stick shift on empty roads, I was not about to test my luck on one lane highways. I actually enjoyed being chauffered around for a change. We were curious as to what the hotel staff thought everytime they pulled the car around and gave me the keys – which I promptly handed to Hollie.  “Senor William has a personal female driver – who is this guy?????”
