BROWNSVILLE, TEXAS... 37 degrees and we are grateful for air conditioning..
Monday we cross the border into Mexico, following the Gulf Coast Highway; Driving to Tampico/Altamira ( Holiday Inn) , then to Veracruz, Villahermosa and finally Merida/Chuburna.. Plan to be at our beach house sometime on Thursday, September 30th.. ( a month from the time we left Castlegar)
We are both a little nervous about this part of the trip and glad to know we are taking you all along with us... We will blog our experiences ( may they be few) as we cross Mexico (if we stay at places where there is internet).. For sure you will hear from us once we have arrived.
