El Paso

We started our day at the Border Police Museum which was really interesting. There was a funeral taking place outside for one of the police as we arrived.

The museum was filled with all the cars, bikes, boats and helicopters the police use which you were allowed to climb inside.

They had displays of the homemade weapons and transport that people had made to try and cross the border with.

Some of the smugglers wear good luck charms to pretend they are illegal immigrants.

This dog was responsible for sniffing out millions of dollars worth of drugs, money and 350 people.

We then went for breakfast at the Oaxaca Cocina Mexicana.

We shared pancakes and an egg and chilli scramble. The meals came with chips, dips and unlimited refills on our drink and only cost $9.

We then drove for over six hours across Texas to Austin. There was nothing to see, so I only took one photo and we were so relieved when we arrived at Holly and Lee's house. They have two lovely cats who kept cuddling up to us in the night.
