Algodones, MX

Today we walked into Algodones, MX.   It is the border town here in Yuma, AZ.   It is a hassle free area and we had no trouble walking in and walking out.   Sue and Mark wanted to go see a dentist and they did.   We shopped around the area.

After Mexico, we stopped at a new casino that just opened on Friday.   It was pretty good.   Manuel played 3 card poker and he won about $100.  I lost about $20. We had fun. Of course, I took pictures where I should not.
