We went to Nogales, Mexico today. I'm not quite sure how I feel about the experience. I'm glad we went. I've wanted to visit Mexico since we moved to Arizona almost 4 years ago. I enjoyed walking around Nogales, and the interaction that I had with the citizen of the town was pleasant. They were very friendly and used jokes to try and get your business. However, I do feel a certain sadness brought on by seeing such poverty and neglect. To think that just on the other side of the fence is the United States with all its wealth and luxuries. As Bill said, you go from first world to third world in minutes.

I took lots of pictures, ( just like the tourist that I am! )
