The biggest expense s driving down there. Gas is about $2.50 a gallon. Tolls from Nuevo Laredo to
Matehuala run about $50.00 each way.
Real is expensive by Mexican standards, but cheap on most other scales. A quite decent hotel room
with two beds runs $40.00 per night. Food is usually about $5-6 per plate. Beer is refreshingly
cheap and abundant.
I think next trip I will just camp. The area is perfectly safe, and you can camp pretty
much anywhere.
That's about it. For expenses. We drove out of Austin on a Wed. evening. Slept on the border, then
got up early and were in Real by 1 p.m. After a leisurely breakfast, we came back by a circuitous
route (We took a 5 hour detour to go swimming in Parras) All well worth it.
