On this day we crossed the Mexican border into San Felipe. Travelling again this year with Rich and Tina, this is picture of their ‘back end’ as we follow them on the Mexican road. It’s hard to imagine, but years ago there used to be water on both sides of the road….. The ocean has receded so much you can barely see it from the road.In this picture - is the Federali Stop. It was pretty intimidating the first time, but now we just smile and open the door…. This year they really went through everything. There has been a lot of bad news about drug wars in Mexico, and friends from San Marcos, CA were quite concerned that we were going. In fact the American government were warning the Americans that they shouldn’t be going across to Mexico. The big trouble is in the border towns - Tiajana - Tecate - etc…. We never had any problem - we crossed the border early (7:00 a.m.) and were through Mexicali before the morning rush.
By 10:00 a.m. we were crossing the arches in San Felipe.
