ONE LAST DAY TRIP TO MEXICO



Well, Dan and I are both sick again.  So we decided to take a quick run down to Mexico, to pick up some Medications. 













It's about a twenty minute drive from our place to the Mexican border. 



                                

We park our truck on the American side of the border
 
We pay our 50 cents and walk across the bridge
Over the Rio Grande River and into Mexico. 
Amid the kayos and carnival atmosphere that are the streets of Progresso, we weave our way.
There are hundreds of pharmacies etc.  within the first few blocks of the town.  We quickly find our favorite pharmacy and purchase our Medications at about one tenth of what we would pay in the USA. 
Then we make the long walk back across the bridge, through the US customs, then the quick drive home. 











 
 
SO THAT'S WAS OUR LAST TRIP DOWN TO MEXICO FOR THIS YEAR.
