Heading to Boquillas del Carmen, Mexico








Eric drives us to the
Boquillas Border Crossing.












 Michelle, explains the rules for
 crossing into Mexico & what we
 are allowed to bring back with us.





We get into a canoe and are rowed across the Rio Grande River.  








Victor sings a welcoming song 
as we near the Mexican side 
of the river. 





Boquillas is three quarters of a mile from the river.  We can walk to the village, ride in a truck or ride into town on burros or horses.









This is the burro I
will ride.










Jose is our guide.













It's an easy ride into
Boquillas.
