Piedras Negras, Nuevo Lardedo, Ciuad Acuna????
      #243734 - 04/06/05 12:36 AM

Has anyone ever been to Piedras Negras, Nuevo Lardedo, or Ciuad Acuna?

I'll be painfully close to Mexico later this month and want to go considering I've never been. I'm not only curious on the availabiliy of meds but also just general travel information.

I have about 3-4 days of downtime in which I can do anything. So what should I do??

I've also not found anywhere that can give me an idea what a hotel costs. I was hoping it would be cheaper in Mexico but I have no idea what to expect.

THANKS

I have crossed into Nuevo Laredo several times as I live a few hours from there. Right now not to scare you but you should know, a few visitors have been taken hostage for money so be very careful. It is wise to not go alone and I would spend a little more and stay in Laredo and just cross the border and visit. Speaking from experience. As far as meds go, in that area I would be very cautious. I have known people that have been detained for trying to get xanax across the border. Now some people have done it successfully but you need to know what you could get into.

** Border Town hotels..NOOOO!!! NOOO!!!!! NO WAY..not at least in the AZ border towns I used to frequent in my Wild West days!! Note: used to...been a longtime but I doubt it has gotten any better and you are talking TX border right? Lots of folks around these boards that live in TX..and I am sure some are pretty adventerous..and will have your answer...Othewr than the hotel deal..consider it like going down the midway at a low level,rural county fair back in the days of yore...Gals really do LOVE the Junk Shops though..*guys,you WILL score mucho points!...It's like a kinda' low rent,gaudy midway/yard sale with shady characters hawking junk..and laughing at us as they take OUR MONEY and come back HOME in the USA in their U.S.Govt/TAXPAYER/YOU/ME/US..subsidized or 'outright paid for' housing (that night when us and our gringo money have left) and their U.S. Govt checks for being mexicans in general(I mean..after all..what's wrong with that!)and the FREE U.S.Govt HealthCare that we can't get...and I just don't understand this as they after all... QUOTE; "are ALL just here to be good semi-citizens and work hard and do the right thing doing jobs that Americans won't do"...BEEEEE-SSSSSSS!!!!!! BS!!! (We have Real Nice Sonoran Desert Arizona swampland for sale real cheap too..if you believe THAT ONE!...we'll mail you the title & deed)
Be REAL careful down there and if you are female..DO NOT GO without a real live American "GUY"!!(should be TWO of them and fearless types at that..and Very Evident to any casual mexican onlooker/observer.. and AT Your Side!! If you ARE an American guy..make sure YOU have a buddy along..and DO NOT stray off the main drag(s)...my general deal in border towns back then was..DO NOT EAT!! DO NOT DRINK unless it is "bottled beer"..and even at that it IS rough but BEER only,remember that Water In Drinks and ICE In Drinks..IS mexican INFECTION(s) waiting for YOU!!...I ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT once upon a time and went ALOT!..BUT IF there EVER were a time for THIS...here it is....**ENTER AT YOUR OWN RISK**
Not trying to rain on ANY parades but I was "strapping" and wild as h&ll and fearless as h&ll too!...but tried to stay aware and alert even then!! (Listen to your elders..please?)....
Other than that..have A ball!!!
Limper....the rain maker..

Yea, there is lots of bad stuff going on in the Nuevo Laredo area, Mexico sent in the Federales to take control cause the drug gangs/cartels are taking people hostages like crazy.......Not a wise choice to go there esp recently/now.........Ive been to Juarez which is on the El Paso border and made it back over with plenty of cheap xans but I wouldnt do it again cause of many reasons, like rotting in a mexican jail.

My answer is just order from an IOP for what ever u need and have no worrys!!


PS If u do crossover dont stay over there just park and walk over the border and come back.

So meds not a good idea I take it. Especially when IOPs are so cheap.

Anyway, does anyone else have any vacation advise for me? I'll be in Texas and can't resist going down there.

Thanks
