Back in Yuma March 5



It has rained for the last two days, Rose and I talked about this as we cannot remember ever getting any rain at all in all the time we spent in Arizona, California, or Mexico. We asked our friend Ivette from the winery, I have to call her that  because she is such a beautiful person although we we only met her once, and she just said it is from heaven we get it so seldom. Apparently they can get as much as 10 inches a year in this mountainous area of the north west of the Baja. By the same token Yuma only gets  3 inches a year.
Our campsite in Valle de Guadalupe

Sorry, but I always have to take a picture of the Wall.

Vendors lined up along the street to the border crossing at Tecate

The GPS took us to an entrance to the border that must have been changed lately. It was a dead end street, but we could see the border crossing on the other side of the barriers.  We had to do a u turn; after  we stopped on the side of a street to study the gps and try to figure out the route. This car in front of us pulled up beside us and asked if we were lost, I said, we sure are,  and she said follow me and about 5 or 6 blocks later we were in line. In hind site it would have been very difficult to figure this out on our own. There was not a big line up and we were through in about 15 minutes.

 We are now back in Yuma to catch up with some people who are still here since we left a month ago.

You've made the circle! It was very interesting to follow your travels with photos while you were in Mexico.

We are planning some more interesting things as we point in a homeward direction. Castle Dome, mining town; Valley of Fire and Zion in Utah
