Hola! Well we left Utah awhile ago. the first night we stayed in Green river, Utah the next night we stayed in Gallup NM then we stayed in Socorro NM then we dropped down to Van Horn TX then we stayed in San Antonio for 2 nights and now we've been In Laredo for 2 nights. We visited a dino museum in UT and today we played at an Imaginarium at the Mall del Norte here in Laredo. It is strange being the only blanco people here...we have met many interesting people. In San Antonio we met people from Bosnia, South Africa and North Carolina who had been hired by our government to teach dogs to smell for bombs. One man had worked in mine fields with dogs..phew..what a job!
Tomorrow at break of dawn we take off for the border. We will cross North of here and take the toll roads thru Mexico as they are guarded by the Federales. Neisha and I are listening and studying the Rosetta Stone Espanol and practice often. Tom does homework with neisha every evening and we try to incorporate learning skills during her day to keep her skills sharp. This morning there were many little spanish speaking boys at breakfast and Neisha looked at them and said "muchus ninos" I laughed as she was correct. There were many boys.
Well it is off to bed with us. Say a prayer for us. I am excited but very scared as well as the reports aren't happy about the bandidos throughout Mexico but we've been assured we're safe on the toll roads.
I pray we haven't been misled.
Debra
