Did I dream that or did it really happen?

We left the Tolantango hotsprings overlooking an expansive gorge to start our trip towards the Yucatan. We are driving small roads so to go around Mexico city. Everthing is going smoothly untill we hit an extensive traffic jam that seems to go on for miles. We move at snail pace for about 3-4 hours in which it begins to get dark. Not wanting to drive at night again especially the small roads we put our heads together and come up with a plan. We turn around and remebering there was a restaurant just a little ways back we go there. Upon ariving we agree that we will ask whoever is inside if we can park behind their bulding and sleep the night. Nobody answers. The sun is sinking quickly and its getting dark. We pull the van behind the building and make dinner. It seems that the building is desserted at the moment so we decide to just go to sleep and get up as early as possible. Or so we thought.
I wake up to Nick saying "wake up Roberto we are getting rousted"
"What"
"Dogs, guys with guns their knocking on the van door."
I get up and am only in my underwear and open the door.
"Hola, que pasa"
"Este property es privado"
I continue to say "mucho lo siento" which is the wrong way to say I am very sorry and I explain about the traffic and that we had no place to go. There is a huge truck with its lights on three police officers with guns and one guy who ownes the place all looking at me in my underwear. They hear my story and go and talk to eachother. That is when the owner comes to me shakes my hand and saysm "Cuando Salimos"
"Ahora tu queres"
" NO esta bein, en la manana por favor."
"Si por su puesto"
The owener walks away and the cop say to me "Tienes permisso"
Those words sounder like angels singing. He told me to calm down and go back to sleep. I could not believe it. When I woke up this morning I still thought, was that a dream or did it really happen?
