During the mini-trip to South Padre Island, we decided to take a road trip over to Progresso. Technically, it's Nuevo Progresso, but the Americans just call it Progresso. Any time I get a chance to enter a foreign country, even if it's only a border town, I jump at it.

The border.
Just inside Mexico, some shops. Please note that there are at least two to four dentists on every block.
An outdoor bar. I admit I had a couple of Corona's with lime under the grass roof.
Vendors' wares line the sidewalks.
A street just off the beaten path.
In addition to dentists, there are numerous pharmacies. Shoppers peruse the merchandise.
More shoppers on the sidewalk.
