Day 19 - Big Bend National Park, TX

Today, we decided to move from the west side of the park to the east side.  We drove for about an hour and then pulled into the Rio Grande Village campground area.  This camp offered an area for RVs with full hook ups and another area with no services at all.  We chose to rough it and save $20 a night by opting for the basic campground w/o services.

The weather today was not so nice!  Cloudy and VERY WINDY for most of the day.  So, it was a good day to travel to the other side of the park.  Although it would have been nice to enjoy the scenery along the way.

After we got ourselves anchored down at our camp site, we decided to check out the hot spring located nearby.  It was extremely awesome!  This spring sets adjacent to the Rio Grande river.  So, you sit there enjoying the scenery of Mexico along the other side of the river, as well as the sounds of the river rushing by.  The air temp was around 50, but the temp of the water had to  have been near 100.

What a relaxing time.
