Friends....Cris and Jim, Glenda and Milton, Jerry and Shirley, David and ???....all on their motorcycles; Jim and Dee in their 2005 Crossfire Chrysler convertible, and us, in our not-cool pick up left Zapata about eleven this morning.
The first stop was at the small town of La Gloria, home of the "bloodless bull fights. The season is over.

| The is the arena. The motorcycles and convertible lined up for a photo op! The pick up was not cool enough to be lined up! |
Several of the other people had been to the bull fights in January, but we have never been.

| The ferry across the Rio Grande River.
The ferry was actually closed when we arrived but the officials let us walk to the river to view the ferry.
The day was gorgeous. The wildflowers are beginning to blooms along the road and in the fields. No pictures of them as it is not possible to photo from the moving truck. We were last in line; if we stopped we would have been separated from the rest of the group.
Total miles today was 217.
One more thing; Jim and Dee traded vehicles with us for about 40 miles or so. Glen got to drive the convertible. I enjoyed being the passenger.
