    No doubt prices are higher there, but I used to just get a taxi and keep it all day in Juarez, and it would only cost me around 20 bucks, all the businesses the taxi drivers there takes you to pays the taxi some too.

    If windy and going to be raining, probably not a bad idea to just hang out for the day anyway. You don'r need to make a habit of getting drenched. lol
    Since it was a holliday, I doubt you would have gotten anything of much importance done anyhow, may have been fun though.
     
    Rocks Thanks this.

    Taxi cabs are very expensive here... If it's absolutely necessary, and there's nothing else available, I may take a cab.... but I rather take a bus.. there are plenty... except on a holiday around this area anyway...
    The two places I intended to go were open... I called them to know... but I will visit them on Monday and it will not make much difference... :biggrin_25512:
    Nothing much to to this weekend... other than try to have my laundry done at my friend's place.. if his washer is available and the weather is not too rainy and humid.... So my clothes can dry... this place is so freakin humid that it takes more than a day for the clothes to dry sometimes... and then, it makes them smell bad... :biggrin_2552: There are no driers here... :biggrin_25512:

    I know someone who lives nearby and she has a car... thought about asking her if she could "rent" me her vehicle... but she needs her vehicle during the weekends to go to work.... And to be honest, I feel "nervous" driving here... it's not like in America..

    I have driven across in to mexico twice, just the border towns, I was much younger and dumber then too. It is easier to just take a cab, they don't mind driving on the sidewalk. lol

    I’m glad to say Thursday finally ended about 15:00 today. It’s supposed to rain today so hopefully I’ll get caught up and back on the right day.

    There was music everywhere... the booths and stands with tables and chairs.... people eating, drinking, singers with guitars playing...

    Moon came out at almost 23:00 and it was big and orange...

    Picture doesn't show very well but there was a band playing and singing there in the middle and everybody else dancing and singing along and raising their glasses and bottles up high...

    [​IMG]

    It was a HUGE party... from now till the Carnival at the end of February, there will be lots of celebrations and festivities and holidays.. This town will be filled up with tourists....

    [​IMG]

    There's an art-craft fair in that area.. one of my friends is an artisan and she has a booth there...

    Yesterday after mid-night, she closed her booth and gave me a ride back to my hotel.
