Time to catch you up on our adventures of late. I told you about going to Algodones one day last week, well we didn’t go on the day I said because we wanted to eat lunch at a favorite cantina there and it was windy that day. We did go the next day though, and we had a great time there.
Paraiso Cantina in Algodones
A very colorful place.
Cadillac Margarita’s for all.
They even serenaded us on the way through customs.
Gorgie had the shrimp tacos and I had shrimp ranchero style, both were excellent. Oh and the Cadillac margarita? We went back for a second after shopping 
.
There is lots of shopping and cheap souvenirs there, so we did our best to support the local economy. We like going there a lot.
I was going through a local paper and spotted an add for a bus trip to Laughlin, NV. The price was just $40.00 each and included transportation, a room for one night, and a free buffet. Sounded like a good time to us, so we called and made reservations to depart on Sunday morning. Well when it was time to go it was raining buckets, the rain was coming down so hard I had a hard time seeing the road. We limped along at about 35 MPH on the 75MPH freeway and were the last to arrive. Well everyone on the bus gave us a cheer and we knew this was going to be an adventure to remember. After we settled into the last two seats (last row next to the not recently cleaned outhouse), and looked around we saw this bus had seen many, many of these trips. Oh well just relax and go along for the ride, and 4.5 hours later and very sore butts later we arrived at the Colorado Belle in Laughlin, NV.
Don’t follow too close.
We weren’t winners but we made new friends and had a great time. Oh and we won’t be taking any bus tours for a while.
More Later, Rich
