Progreso, Mexico

The day after Christmas we packed up with friends and drove to the Mexican border, a lengthy trip of a whole 12 miles. We parked on the American side and walked across the border into Progreso, Mexico.
















Main street is busy, crowded, and tight.














There always seems to be new construction or reconstruction going on, but it just never seems to get finished. This building looks like it will be quite nice and there were workers actually working!!!



Shopping is usually colorful.














Sharon liked the clothes in this shop.













And here we find Sharon paying the Texas tax on the liquor she bought in Progreso. Kind of knocks the edge off the great buys on alcohol in Mexico.





All in all, it was a nice day. Had a good lunch. Saw interesting and colorful shops. And best of all didn't buy anything (except Sharon's liquor).
