This year was a breeze getting through immigration. After immigration, we went to get our luggage. There were a lot of people and not much room to maneuver. We each had two large bags. Now it was time to go through customs. Bob put all of our luggage on the X-ray belt. Sam pushed the green/red button and got a green light. We were a little concerned because we brought all of our vitamins and supplements for the 4 1/2 months we will be Mexico. Sam put most of them in big Ziploc baggies because it was easier to pack. Before we left home, Bob made a chart of all of the supplements. He listed each pill and stated if they were for Bob or Sam and how many of each pill per day, times the number of days (138). He was ready! Luckily we didn't need it.
After we got through immigration and customs, Francisco, our driver, was right there waiting for us. It was wonderful to see a familiar face. We walked to the parking garage and this was our view.
We couldn't believe how close these homes were to the airport. Every available space...up, down, and sideways is being used for housing. It certainly makes us appreciate our home in Michigan.
Glad to read you made it through customs easily..."no hassles" is always a good thing after a long day of travel. The picture sure does make having our own "space" something to be thankful for. They could fit two or three entire towns in your back yard! :-)
ReplyDeleteIf you haven't spent time in DF, you really should try to go while you are here this time. It is a very exciting city. I have some recommendations for places to stay and eat if you decide to go.
ReplyDeleteHoney...you should come and see for yourself!
ReplyDeleteBillie...if we decide to go to DF, we will let you know. Thanks for the offer. Many years ago, we spent two days in DF (shortly after the earthquake.
