Mexico Here We Come

Today started early. Randy and Terry and Rod and Deb arrived at our RV park around 8:30 a.m. Along with Jim and Ellie, the eight of us planned a trip to Mexico today. We packed a few snacks and drinks and headed off for the day.

If was about a 3 hour drive to the border. We got parked and paid our 25 cents each to cross the bridge. It was lunch time, so we headed to Artero's for lunch. After lunch we did a little shopping. When we had our fill, we headed back to the bridge where we had to pay 30 cents to get back across the bridge. Then with passports in hand, we checked through customs and were welcomed back to Texas.

We then headed into Donna and went to the local flea market and farmer's market. After a full day, we had a 3 hour drive back to Rockport, but what a great day.

Once we were back to the park, we said our "see you laters" to Randy and Terry who will be leaving tomorrow and heading up to San Antonio for the week before they head west. Have a safe trip you two, and I loved you being here and we will see you down the road!

I wish I had pictures to share with you, but I took my small camera with me today and it uses a large SD card and I can find the card reader to download the pictures. LOL!

Again, what a great day with great friends.

  1. Sounds like a fine trip...no drugs or liquor...no doctor visits...just went and ate??? OK I guess 55 cents isn't too bad for a day of shopping LOL Good to see you safe back at the park.

  2. Hi guys,
    After reading your blog for sometime now, something struck me today with regards to your blog name. Would the name happen to be inspired by the book "The Shack"?
