At least it's not snowing

We're stuck here in Laredo, TX, because of low visibility and thunderstorms. After last night's adventures, we didn't want another challenging flight, and decided to extend our vacation to include the "charming" border city of Laredo. A grey, dreary vacation so far, but hey, it's above freezing!
People here are all naturally bilingual, and all the signs are in English, but it still feels more like Mexico than the US (or even Texas). Everywhere we go, we're addressed in Spanish, even though we look like gringos. Sadly, the forecast for tomorrow is that the storm will clear in the afternoon, and we would be forced to leave this fascinating resort. Oh well, we do what we have to do... At least this will give us another day to prepare for the adventures of our first border crossing, including the sure hits "dealing with US customs", "surfin' the Mexican airwaves", and "No, Commandante, these are prescription drugs!"
