That was also a surprise for me. I waited for several decades for this to happen. The only problem I encountered today was that due to the holidays, there were caravans of people driving south. It looked like Okies with their pick up trucks filled to the top with mattresses, washing machines and refrigerators. There were huge lines everywhere. All motels were full. Some Pemex gas stations ran out of gas. That had never happened before. The roads? Well, same 'ol same old. Beat up for the most part. Don't want to bad mouth Mexico, but after driving down there for more than 5 decades, this will most likely be my last trip driving. My body just can't take the shake, rattle and roll of those roads.
