LATE THIS AFTERNOON. THIS AREA INCLUDES THE COMMUNITIES OF LAS TIENDAS AND LAREDO.

Enough said, I'll be in the hotel bar taking on liquids.
And this is my hotel, 2 swimming pools, 2 bars, 3 restaurants and loads of fluffy towels... But it's just over the border from Mexico so it costs as much as a La Quinta in Houma where the WiFi doesn't work.
