On the Go with Travel Writer

Had the opportunity to be with a Travel Writer from Kansas City. We went to the annual Border Fest in Hidalgo this weekend, where she had the chance to try out the festival's variety of food and on site "live" entertainment. Later we went to IMAS an art gallery here in McAllen, where she had the chance to see a piece of McAllen art scene. Earlier, she had the chance to explore the border region and cross the U.S.-Mexican border on a Ferry, it was a really neat way to get to the other side into Mexico and back, while enjoying the view of the river from up close. Yesterday, we went to Progreso, Mexico, where she had a chance to shop in the variety of shops, enjoy really good Mexican food at a moderate looking restaurant called Arturo's, which I highly recommend eating at when you visit Progreso, Mexico and don't forget to sample their frozen drink specialties to kick start your engine inside of you. What can I say, McAllen CVB really knows how take care of it's guests.
