Linda and Gary go to Mexico!

This is what greets you when you cross the border into Nuevo Progresso, Mexico.

Linda and Gary at the middle of the bridge

We left around 1030 after picking up Linda and Gary at their beautiful rig. From Bentsen Palms RV resort it takes about an hour to drive to the border. We take Highway 83 east then south on highway1015. Gary paid the parking fee of $2 and we all had our quarters ready to cross the bridge. We're not sure why, but it costs 25 cents each to go into Mexico, but 30 cents to return to the USA. I guess that's how they pay the crossing guards! LOL We've never had any problems because we have passports.

We walked down to the Red Snapper restaurant and promptly ordered our 2 for 1 drinks. Then we each ordered a dish from the menu. 20 bucks for lunch is a bargain when you get margaritas with it!

After lunch we wandered a bit more south and came across a seafood restaurant that we may have to try. We love seafood! Then we crossed over and headed north and stopped and looked and shopped. I even found some Chamoy (margarita mix) and a ring to buy.

Once we crossed back into the US we were home in no time. Immediately we were invited to Happy Hour at Anne and Scotty's. A friend of theirs from San Antonio was visiting and they wanted us to meet Sue. Linda and Gary came down as did Karen and Dave.

Wednesday I caught up on some laundry while Jim worked outside with Dave and Scotty. They had to install something on our truck that Jim has had forever. I made Spanish Rice for dinner and after Jim came home from his Spanish lesson we had an early dinner. You see he was so busy working that he forgot to eat lunch!

Not sure what we did after dinner. we've been sleeping with the fan running and a window open at night. It's been nice not having to throw off the covers.....
