Is it Meds or Drugs?

Oh...did I say drugs?...WELL...seems to me some people call Margarita Grandes and Cuba Libres drugs, but we don't. CHEERS TO ALL OF YOU IN THE COLD, FOGGY, SNOW & ICE COUNTRY...we feel sorta sorry for you...NOT! You old folks make your choices, and you must love the weather. And you young'uns, we hope you all get your turn.

Today we spent in Algodones, Mexico. The main reasons for going are cheap meds for friends and family, cheap booze and Margaritas for lunch. Before our lunch...it wasn't all liquid...but some of us did giggle as we walked away...lol. OH YEAH, before our lunch we picked up hundreds of dollars in inexpensive meds. It's really difficult to understand why we have to pay so much at home. Maybe it's the overhead that the drugstores and pharmaceutical companies have. There certainly are no neon flashing lights or fancy floors down here. They aren't selling as much meds as they used to, because all of us on medicare have prescription coverage or buy the generics at Wally World.

After lunch we all bought pretties. Those dang Margaritas somehow loosen our wallets. Then the last stop before heading back to the border are the purple front stores. I don't know the name of the stores; they're just painted bright purple and sell booze and chocolate liquor-filled candies.

Here's most of our group waiting in line to get back across the border. We did laugh a lot, but they posed for this picture.

But after waiting over two hours the booze had worn off and this is more how we looked...notice all the purple bags?...It's one bottle per person per month...lol

Today we waited longer than we ever have...almost three hours...sigh...We arrived back at the coach about 6:30pm, exhausted. It was peanut butter sandwiches for dinner.
