    I'm so very happy you had a safe trip.
    In I think, 1977, when traveling through Mexico was still pretty safe, I was in the University of Arizona Marching Band in Tucson, the Governor of Sonora, Mexico, invited the band, all 210 of us, to march and perform for them in their Carnivale in Guaymas. We rode in very comfortable modern busses down very good roads to Nogales, AZ. Then we had to cross into Mexico on foot through the border offices where we were then picked up by very uncomfortable Mexican busses. They took us over very rough roads to a two-story motel outside of Guaymas where sand came out of the shower heads. It was right on a rocky beach that had a nice boardwalk which we enjoyed in the evenings after our duties of the day were finished. We stayed there for 3 days and had to march in their parades every day and give concerts in the city square twice a day. The busses would pick us up every morning and take us into the city for our day. It took a long time for the restaurant to feed all of us for each breakfast and lunch, but they fed us very well. We were brought back to our motel after our 2nd concert and were on our own for dinner. A group of us discovered a very nice resort nearby our motel where we had a really great meal. On our last day after our morning concert, the Governor had invited us to a brand new resort further up the coast where we were treated like his guests of honor and had a wonderful brunch outside with a live band and dance floor. That resort had a really nice beach. The Governor greeted us and thanked us for our performances. We headed back home the same way we had come, tired but filled with happy memories.
    It is one of my favorite memories from college. I often wonder if we were part of the reason Mexico became interested in having their own school marching bands that you can see now every year invited to the Tournament of Rose's Parade.

    My wife and I love your videos and have a great time watching them. We traded our 36 foot Newmar class A to a 2024 pottery barn airstream trailer and get inspiration when watching your videos. Keep them coming and maybe we will see you on the road.

    I found you guys yesterday and I'm loving it. This is me watching my dream. We retired in 2010 after being self-employed for 30 yrs. The big "C" came unto play that year, and we lost him in March 2017. Continue on and enjoy this time. Cherish every moment God gives you. Be safe.

    Did you notice the difference? In the United States people stand on the corner and ask for money. In Mexico they stand on the corner with tools to work.. they don't want a handout they want to work I have a hard time seeing people that are snobbish when they enter another country.

    • @bigtruckbigtravels
      @bigtruckbigtravels  6 หลายเดือนก่อน +8

      Yes, Deborah, very aggressive but they don't just want a handout. They want to earn it and feel good about it. It's a different culture but we really enjoy it. Thanks 😄

      Both of them are awesome. I prayed for this type of relationship when I’m up in ages.

    How fun! About 30 years ago, my husband, our three oldest children, my mother and I along with a few cousins went down to Rocky Point and camped in tents at a campground with big walls around it. I can't remember the name of the campground. But it seems it was on the south side of the town, and it was right on the beach. It was so fun! That low tide is amazing. We had gone to Disneyland with the children, but they liked the beach so much more. The town looks a lot bigger now. I did get trapped by a hidden stop sign. There was a big delivery truck right in front of it so I couldn't see it. Immediately a police man walked over and stopped me. I couldn't speak Spanish but two of my cousins were with me, one who could speak a little Spanish. She got me out of the situation.

    We went to Rocky Point years ago when I was a teen with a busload of kids. We swam in the water, and it was like bathwater--really warm. I don't remember anything there except the beach and a little bitty town. It sure has changed since then. Thanks for the great video!

    Hi guys, remember when people uses to see how many people would fit in a mini, that's what I was thinking watching you pack the smart car. Thoroughly enjoyed seeing Mexico we only seem to get the bad news out here. Safe travels

    • @bigtruckbigtravels
      @bigtruckbigtravels  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      😆 🤣 We always wait for the car to tip back when loaded like that! Bad news sells so it's usually what gets aired. We have always had a great experience in Mexico... but then we try to go to the good areas. Thanks, as always, for being a part of the journey.

    Rocky Point is awesome. We have a condo right down the beach from your campsite and go often, rent it when we’re not there. Glad you went and showed how good the road is and the beauty of Rocky Point., one of our favorite places in the world. Stop signs at lights are confusing. You are good if light is green. Sometimes they don’t work, though. Thus the stop signs. I hope you can go back and spend some more time, hopefully with your rig. If so, check out Playa Bonita campground.

    • @bigtruckbigtravels
      @bigtruckbigtravels  7 หลายเดือนก่อน

    My husband and I have been watching you for several months now (a few videos back you said that you knew people were watching but they hadn't yet subscribed. I think you said something like, "You know who you are!" Yeah, that would be us 🙄😂). David, don't knock Sondra's stickers! I have basically bonded with her over that...and the Memory Keeping too. My Dave doesn't understand it either. He once told me that I won't use up all of the stickers I have before I die 😂. We watch and look forward to your videos each week. We are planning to spend this coming winter in the Southern U.S. (Snowbirds from Ontario, Canada; how cliche is that?) and you have given us so many ideas of interesting things to do and great places to visit while we travel (we have a 38 foot fifth wheel). We'll definitely be watching (and then we'll literally be watching for you on the road when we get down there!). THANK YOU so much for all of your hard work and taking the time to videotape your experiences. It's a valuable resource and we really appreciate it!

    David and Sondra sálate from Mexico City. I just want to tell you that you are the best all the pictures and scenes you take in the north, south, east or west are incredible. Your travel into Mexico and the food was just a wish for me to visit that part of. Mexico but when you say “Oh that’s wild” it looks that we Mexicans are wild. That we live in the wilderness, and you know what? You are right you are totally right. The stop signs was really funny. I want to invite you to visit other sites of Mexico take a fly and visit Cabo’s or Riviera Maya or the beaches in Oaxaca let you be treated like king and queen in a five star hotel or visit Mexico City and see the magnificence of the museums and the Aztec ruins. Pyramids. My best wishes in your travels and God bless you always. And remember living in the wilderness is some times very fun.

    • @bigtruckbigtravels
      @bigtruckbigtravels  7 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thank you. We plan to travel down to Baja in the future and see the other areas of Mexico. When we say "that's wild", we mean that it is very different from our expectation or what we're used to and familiar. It's part of the reason to visit other countries is to be exposed to those "wild things". We love the food, culture and people of Mexico which is why we continue to travel there. Gracias for your comments and watching the channel.
