Nothing to fear

For natural reasons, I only stayed in Chihuahua one day and decided to go further south. I purchased a ticket via Ojinaga (a bordertown close to Texas), which became a 10 hour detour and cost me an additional £10. However, I had the opportunity to visit the immigration office and sort my papers out.
I simply approached the immigration office walking from the Mexican side, went in and asked for a tourist card. The official flicked through my passport and quietly assumed that I had just arrived from the US and gave me everything I needed without hesitation. I am still amazed that it actually worked.


The quiet bordertown Ojinaga had not much to offer tourists.
