Takes .. a while. Don't know why Americans are so suspicious towards the people coming from the Mexican border side...? When we actually got to the border with the bus in the morning, our driver told us that with the traffic we could expect to wait 4-5 hours just to get passed the border and that we sould better walk. So we did, across the bridge over Río Grande. Then to get passed the border control we had to stand in line to get a visa thing that I already had, while being met by patriotic messages such as God bless America and a fancy-looking portrait of mr. Obama.

Then, finally, we could enter The Land of Dreams, The Land of the Brave and ... The Land of Mexicans. During the entire day only two people adressed me in English. The signs were all in Spanish, the bus driver spoke Spanish, when we paid we got price in Spanish. I think the US has to watch out a bit, seems like Mexico is trying to accomplish a slow and integrated take-over of Texas. Beware.


Border line traffic?
