Mexico Monday

Butch and I went to see Hector in Mexico on Monday. I was out of one of my meds, actually the only prescription med I take now. Hector is our pharmacist in Mexico and he always gives us the best prices. The status of the peso affects drug prices and the peso is apparently in better condition than in the past. Prices are up.
Our over-the-counter Charlote is up to $12 now. Hector says that one is a mystery to him because it should not be affected by the peso so it must be supply and demand. It is also harder to find. Hector has it.
Butch and I always walk across the border leaving our car in a supervised parking lot on the US side. The walk down to Hector's we estimate to be about a mile. On our way back we stopped at Jessica's for Panchos and they were very good. More than very good, they were excellent! They always give you chips and salsa and 1 free margarita apiece. We each ordered a coke and the bill was $10. Jessica's also have entertainment with a singer and sometimes dancers. On Monday we had both.
