Today was a short travel day, only about 90 miles. But is was over mountains, our highest pass was slightly over 9,000 ft. Things got a little exciting when we went through one of the toll booths. We happened to be the last RV through and the federal police decided to pull us over. We simply could not understand what they were asking. They didn't want our passports and didn't want to come in the RV. Luckily our tail gunner's wife speaks spanish and we were able to get her on the CB to talk with the police. All they wanted to know was what we were doing in Mexico and what was the name of the caravan company. I know, I should have been able to understand, but I've only studied spanish for 6 weeks. We never felt threatened and the police were very friendly. Good thing, they are all carrying automatic rifles.
We had a mardi gras party at the campground and elected a king & queen. It was fun. We then went out to diner with 3 other couples and had pizza. More pyramids tomorrow.
