A fantastic day with Antonio at the helm! Tours, drink, police escorts, drink, appetizers, drink, mounds of seafood and Nomads, friends and family at
every turn. Thanks Antonio! Thanks Doug! Thanks David!bajaandy - 11-5-2006 at 05:43 PM
Here here!! I couldn't agree more! I for one had a WONDERFUL time seeing the sights in TJ with a great group of Nomads. Antonio did his usual job of
making everyone feel like a VIP, and David did a great job of getting the word out. And of course without Doug's BajaNomad board none of this would
have happend in the first place. Way to go guys! Can't wait to see some of the pictures.
Have photos, can't seem to post 'em

For some reason, the upload 'attachment' section of the 'Post Reply' button thingie isn't showing up on this thread for me. I must be missing vital
step or mystic incantation since other threads Post Reply window has the 'attachment' browse section... Any clues for the clueless?bajalou - 11-6-2006 at 07:53 AM
It's all there for me TacoFeliz
Are you sure you didn't try to post from the quick reply box below the other posts? Summanus - 11-6-2006 at 07:57 AM
I believe bajalou is on the money. Try it again, Taco Feliz. Click on the Post Reply box in lower right corner of the post...then you should see
the Browse box for selection of attachment/photo.bajalou - 11-6-2006 at 08:55 AM
Think you got it now---David K - 11-6-2006 at 09:23 AM
Jay, don't type into the "Quick Reply" box that is located just below the last reply in this thread... Instead, click on the "Post Reply" button in
the bottom right corner of the last reply... it is next to the "New Topic" button.
Quick Reply does not have the 'Browse' button to attach photos from your PC's files... The photos must be below 50 kbs to post on Nomad...
I probably will get my photos of the party up tonight...BajaNomad - 11-6-2006 at 09:59 AM
TacoFeliz originally posted this thead in the Baja Events forum in the classifieds... and some of the classifieds forums do not have attachments
allowed... the events forum being one of them. I later moved this thread to the trip reports forum which does allow attachments.
I'm working on my own photos from Saturday's event to post.

to L. A. Cetto winery -- tuning up the taste buds with a little wine

The real Tijuana underground
TacoFeliz - 11-6-2006 at 10:40 AM
Wine in abundance, but a few bottles appear to be missing from that top row!
TacoFeliz - 11-6-2006 at 10:41 AM
A Tijuana tradition - street zebras
TacoFeliz - 11-6-2006 at 10:42 AM
The wine has barely started flowing and Graham finds a friend
TacoFeliz - 11-6-2006 at 10:43 AM
On to the brewery for a change of pace
TacoFeliz - 11-6-2006 at 10:49 AM
Now that we are suitably loosened up, we head to the Centro Control y Mando headquarters to see the Tijuana surveillance program at work. Sixty
linked rear projection monitors, operators with surveillance training and legal degrees, gunshot sensors that can identify weaponfire caliber and
location, facial recognition, GPS tracking and more. Wow!

Of course, Ken had to see if the officers carried real handcuffs...
TacoFeliz - 11-6-2006 at 10:52 AM
Dinner at Los Arcos was spectacular

Several of the happy revellers, post food and drink
TacoFeliz - 11-6-2006 at 11:09 AM
An excellent time was had by all. Thanks again, Antonio!
With any luck, other Nomads will post photos of more of our motley crew, the dinner, awards and the highlights of the day. We had a grand time in
excellent company, with a most gracious thoughful host.

You do remember that wine being passed around the
bus don't you????????
rogerj1 - 11-7-2006 at 10:05 PM
The funny thing about those wine bottles missing is that we had been warned not to touch the bottles. Our tour guide related a story about a man
removing one bottle and having the whole stack come crashing down. Apparently he was injured and several people who came to his aid passed out from
the fumes!
