Border Visit April 14, 2019

Sunday  April 14,  2019. Afternoon. Roxham Road, USA.
A crisp spring day - still quite chilly.  Three people crossed into Canada today while we were there.

The first taxi brought a young woman from Zimbabwe. She was anxious and totally focused on crossing as quickly as possible.  She acknowledged that she understood the RCMP officer's message and quickly crossed over.

A second taxi arrived with a mother and son (aged about 14) from Nicaragua, and not warmly dressed. They were very nervous but very friendly and were grateful to receive some warm things.  The mom was a bit surprised to hear it could still be cold here in April.   When  we said that this was  El  Norte , she smiled to hear some Spanish.   They entered Canada without incident.

RCMP officers stuck to their protocol and behaved appropriately.
