RE: Palm Springs to Puerto Penasco
Hola Les,
We have just down your route in reverse. Enter at Lukeville and get your passport stamped, go to RP and enjoy your visit. You can either come back via Soynata or proceed to Carboca, actually is is Pitiquito for your car permit. Details on my blog. Bur Les...if you are going to be living full time in Mexico there are different rules.

Diesel fuel stolen or ??????
We strongly suspect that 54 litres of diesel fuel were siphoned off our RV while we slept in the Los Mochis RV Park. If not then, that means that the last Pemex at Soynata has a crooked meter. Details on my blog if you are interested. We are 99% certain it was not the meter at the Pemex
RE: Border wait times!
We crossed at Soynata on April 10th. We crossed late in the day, after 4PM and only one lane open and we were thru within 2 minutes. Hard boiled eggs, romaine lettuce and tomatoes are just fine!
