Currently in Phoenix

We had a safe trip from Lo de Marcos to the Mexican/US border at Nogales. We left Lo de Marcos on the morning of Sunday, March 18th and arrived in the Tucson area on Wednesday, March 21st.

Sunday we stayed in Mazatlan at San Fernando RV Park and went to dinner at Fat Fish (rib specialty place!), followed by a relaxing time in the pool and hot tub afterwards. 
Monday night we stayed at a Pemex truck stop south of Los Mochis.  You stay free but tip the guard to watch over you in the locked compound.  It was surprisingly quiet considering we were right on the highway! (100% better than our experience at the Pemex near San Louis Potosi 2 years ago)
Tuesday night we stayed in San Carlos at Totonaka and met up with other friends who had left Lo de Marcos the week before us for dinner at the marina.
Wednesday we crossed the border at Nogales with no issues.
We stayed 2 nights for free at the Desert Diamond Casino south of Tucson while we shopped around Green Valley and Tucson.
Friday we moved here to the Phoenix area.  We are staying at the Arizona Cowboy RV Park in Mesa.  After a day spent visiting around Phoenix (population 4 million) we relaxed at a community campfire after dinner this evening. 
Tomorrow we head back to Tucson.
