So a quick maccy D's for breakfast and off to Laredo Mexico.
Parked the van in a car park right next to the border crossing bridge. 75cents for the pass and walk over the bridge. Mexican guards waved me through no problem didn't look at docs.
Searched for a cache near the big flagpole (flag wasn't flying- perhaps the orderly had overslept as it was only 9:30)
Couldn't find this one so onto the next. An easy find but was muggled by the man of the house who introduced me to his lovely wife Rosie. Not sure if he was trying to sell her to me so I kept my money out of site.
That done i hightailed out of Mexico. The poverty was visible. No wonder they all want to get over the border.
Now to get back onto the bridge I needed pesos, and which of course, is I didn't have. So saw the chap in the office and he changed a dollar for me. Ok back over the bridge I meet Homeland Security who need me to have a permit to enter the U.S. So I go to the permit office and wait an hour in the queue the to be grilled by a lovely gun toting official young lady who eventually gave me the permit for $6. Yee haa set off for San Antonio and arrived at the lovely KOA camp
