Passaportas por favor

Hi all,



After waking up in our shady motel in Las Cruches this morning, we drove our Sebring (for one last time) across the Texan border to the Mexican bordertown of El Paso. Our initial plan was to already cross the border and spend the night in Ciudad Juarez, but many people advised us not to do that since drug cartels have recently gone a bit mad over there and killed a lot of cops.




So we just crossed the border to get our Mexican tourist visa for tomorrow. And what a strange experience it was. Crossing the border by foot was very alienating. Once more, let the pictures speak for themselves...
















Tomorrow we're getting on the bus to Chihuahua, Mexico, to fetch a train to the Pacific. Finally!
PS: Enjoy the weather in Belgica.
