Today, Dec 22, we drove around and looked at some of the citrus orchards... getting cloudy in the afternoon...about 65 degrees and breezy...


Lemons for miles!


We saw lemons, oranges, grapefruit, palmellos and date palms.. Never ate a date before today! 

Tomorrow we will cross the border and visit Los Algodones, Mexico.  Also known as "Molar City".  Its about a 20 mile drive...


We read that there are over 300 dentists in a 4 block area of Los Algodones, catering to American tourists.  There are dozens of pharmacies too... prescription medications are like 1/10 the cost or less than in the states.  My Daughter is paying over $300 bucks for a bottle of insulin that sells for $25 in the major pharmacies.  Also optometrists..one can get an eye exam for $10 bucks and two pair of progressive glasses for under $100. We will look into getting some prescription sunglasses and a few prescriptions...This should be interesting!!
