It happened in Monterrey.

We arrived today in Monterrey after spending a near sleepless night in a truck stop just before the US-Mexico border. We left early this morning to get to the border nice and early. Before crossing we learned that we had to get vehicle insurance in order to avoid ending up in a Mexican prison if we had an accident; so, after an expensive insurance trip and uneventful border crossing (we were amazed as we didn't get our passports stamped or even looked at!) we rode through some crazy traffic and arrived at our hosts home. Our host Jon has been kind enough to set all three of us up in his place in Monterrey and has shown us around town a little tonight. We walked around downtown and took in some of the sights, then took a taxi to a quaint authentic Mexican restaurant and had our first real meal in Mexico, needless to say it was delicious! We then went to a hidden bar that was extremely hipster and had a few drinks and listened to some live jazz. Afterwards Jon took us for an evening scenic drive around the city and into the hills to see the sheer size of Monterrey; such a pretty city and crazy big! Tomorrow we plan to explore the city a bit more and give our bodies a rest from riding.
