Ok, we're not really there yet, but we got our first taste of the road to come this afternoon in Guadalupe. This little town of 6,000 is overwhelmingly mexican. All of the stores and restaurants have signs only in Spanish and they serve up a mean (and authentic) burrito. Jodie and Wendy even got a chance to practice some of the spanish that they've been learning on the road with the very friendly owners who only spoke a bit of english. I also had a good chat with them about our trip and their hometown in Mexico and it was the first spanish I've spoken in a while. After lunch, we explored a few of the small groceries in town that serve up a whole bunch of mexican treats and we all rode out of town feeling quite giddy about being so close to the border and the next stage of our trip. Hasta Mexico!!
