Rio Grande and Boquillas. In Big Bend

On our last full day in Big Bend we went across the border to Boquillas, Mexico for lunch at one of the two restaurants. We paid $5 for a boat ride and then walked 3/4 mile to town, we could have taken burros. It was fun to get a little Mexican experience and then came back across border with a virtual meeting with border control in El Paso. We hiked into Boquillas Canyon along the Rio Grande and then did a sunset hike on the nature trail from the campground. Eric replaced our water pump, we bought the part in Tucson because we knew it was failing. The moon was full and fun to watch rise but we never had dark skies to see the stars, maybe next time.Read more
