Can I just say, I Hate Mexico! Trent and I thought it would be a Great idea to visit the Juarez Temple on our Friday night date night! Trent hasn't been to the Juarez Temple and I had only been once. We decided to take the toll bridge because it was much faster than taking the free bridge. When I last went with the ward on ward temple night we also used the toll bridge, so that's the way I knew how to get to the Temple. So I thought! Talk about frustrating and scarey! Once we crossed into Mexico I couldn't tell one ghetto block from the next! We ended up driving around the Whole city of Juarez for 1 1/2 hours with no luck! I thought I would totally recognize where to go! Ummm No. It was dark and my sense of direction went right out the window! Well after driving up and down a few roads and some illegal u-turns we found the same bridge we paid to get over to that stupid country. Thinking you could just pay and quickly return to America, without the 2 hour wait on the free bridge, we pulled up to the guard to pay the fee. He asked us to show our express pass to continue through. What express pass you ask? Apparently the one you need to exit the toll bridge or else you get a hefty $5,000 fine! Yeah we had no idea we weren't allowed to go on this bridge! All I have to say is it totally sucked watching a german shepard sniff and rummage through your car! I couldn't handle it anymore! I was in tears by the time we actually made it back home! Well I guess next time we go on a sweet Temple trip we'll take someone who knows where to go! We thought it would be so nice to visit the Temple together and feel the spirit! I guess next time I go ward Temple night I'll write the directions down! Sorry babe for getting us lost and ruining a night we thought would be so Perfect!
p.s. no one ever ask me for directions! Unless you wanna drive around aimlessly for many hours! thank you thank you
