§ Wowie Zowie!!! This is so amazing. We have been so fearful to cross the border after hearing all the things that have been happening but we thought let's get to the border and talk to the border patrol at the cross over point.
§
§ Tom and I agreed ahead of time that if the Border patrol told us it was too dangerous then we would simply head back to Idaho.
So we went ahead and talked with the people who really know and they said as long as we stay on the toll roads we should be fine as the Policia and Federales and Military all guard and protect those roads 100%.
.
Then Tom and I started over. We paid the $4.50 at our border to cross and once in Mexico
We began the proceedings at 8 am and finally were on the road at 11:00 am. While we were waiting for all the red tape to be dealt with we managed to have conversations with 3 other couples who have been travelling back and forth between the 2 countries for years! Everyone told us we needn’t fear at all if we stay on the toll roads and drive during the day. The roads are nearly as perfect as anyone could wish for but they are not lit and it would be easy to fall off the road at night.We've been on the road since 7:30 this am and reached matehuala by 6:30 pm tonight. It is an Oasis a wonderful sight to behold. It is so wonderful! I am so grateful we overcame our fears and went for it.
Am heading to bed now will write more later.
