After a few hours of easy drive, we had arrived to Monterrey, Mexico.
We had decided to go to San Augstin Mall. After we did a little shopping, we went to eat at an Argentine Restaurant.
Before we had even started to eat, we could not resist thinking about the wide variety of sweets they had had at the restaurant.
Their shrrasco and arrachera were excellent!
The name of the Argentine Restaurant we went is 'El gaucho'.
Thumbs up!
The second day we had decided to drive up to Chipinque Mountain before breakfast.
These slides were here when our children were small. They enjoyed them.
Could not believe that they were still here!
After breakfast we went to carretera, where you can find many Mexican art crafts and food.
These are some Mexican sweets made from sweet potatoes and pumpkins.
When we were living here we never had a traffic to go up to Chipinque.
Now this is how it looks like before the entrance gate.
Oh yes, now they even charge to get into the park.
It used to be free. Time flies.
We had our brunch @ our favorite hotel, Quinta Real.
Pans dulces there are so good.
We also like the fresh juice with Nopales(cactus), Orange, and Pineapple.
We also had their Chilaquiles for the first time, and it was excellent!

A week later we took them to Rio Grande River Tour.
You can see the border patrol boats going by the ferry.
This is how it looks like at the back of our ferry boat.
This is a view of the American side from the ferry.
You can see cozy RV homes. They probably are for Winter Texans.
Mexican people were enjoying water.
As you can tell, Mexican border is not far at all.
This is the far end of our trip.
Rio Grande River has a dam between the U.S. and Mexican border.
People on both sides were enjoying swimming, fishing, riding mortar boats, etc.
It was a peaceful sunny summer afternoon.
