South Texas Roadtrip

 Our trip through southern Texas to avoid the cold took us to Del Rio, Laredo, and Corpus Christi.

Leaving the campground in Del Rio

Lots of open road on the way to Laredo

The route from Del Rio to Laredo follows the Rio Grande, which is the border between Mexico and Texas.  There is a heavy presence of Border Patrol officers.
