Juarez, Mexico

El Paso was interesting. The city is pretty much a sprawling dump (well, at least what I saw of it), but you can walk to Mexico! It's literally just across a bridge. (The bridge essentially crosses over a moat that separates the US from Mexico)

For $.35 you can walk across the bridge from El Paso to Juarez, Mexico. Nobody checks any ID, nobody seems to care who you are...you can just head to Mexico. Coming back costs $.30. They asked for ID (my driver's license), if I'm a US citizen (yes), why I was in Mexico (I was in El Paso and wanted to walk across the boarder). Ok, have a nice day. Whatever. Cars seem to be pretty much the same drill.

Juarez is pretty run down...



But it does have beautiful scenery.
