Happy Anniversary!
We decided to go into Mexico today to Algodones — it’s less than 5 miles from the RV park the way the crow flies but is about 15 miles by road. There’s a large parking lot on the US side of the border and you walk across the border into Algodones. Pharmacies, liquor stores and dentists are the first things you see when you cross the border. All of the items are a lot cheaper in Mexico than in the US. Restaurants and tourist shops fill in the area around the pharmacies. As it was our first time in this town we opted to have lunch in one of the larger more popular restaurants (and probably more expensive though a good size margarita was only $3).
Tonight was the first time we had company in the hot tub — two couples from Alberta. There certainly are a lot of Canadians down here.

entering Mexico, just walk on in, no one guards at all
