The bridge between Texas and Mexico at Prospecto

The signe entering Prospect0
The Armed Services at the Boarder Protection Area
The Mexican Soldiers pushed the blind folded man over the bridge here just to the right of this sign - it could not be done on the Mexican side as you can see because of the upright posts. These posts do not continue on the American side. A note of interest here is the bridge is not owned by either the Mexican or American governments - it is privately owned and you pay 30 cents american to cross in one direction and 25 cents american to come back.

The same beautiful colours in this part of Mexico
