Please pick them up as soon as you can ! I sent u2u but am putting it here as well as I got no answer.

Thank you again Blanca.
We wont forget them, don't worry, they might still be there till Saturday. Right now we're on the tamale hunt.
There are so many things involved with this event, you'd be amazed.
Right now I'm working on having a Ballet Folklorico perform.
Gracias

We got all the toys to Tijuana yesterday because of that friend that helped us, it took 4 cars with 100 toys each. we also picked up the toys from the dentist and the ones Jen Hill had in Playas so we're ready for tomorrow.
The only different thing we'll have is that the toys will be unwrapped.

Same place Scot, just different bus.
Mexicoach stoped sponsoring us a couple of years ago, don't know why.
The same bus company that took us to Tecate last year will be taking us again for this event but the pick up point is the same, Avenida Revolucion between 6th and 7th streets.
See you in the morning, 9:30 am
Fernando

To all of you that made this toy drive possible, a big, big thank you. It could not happen without your help.
The rain didn't allow for all the children that we had on the list to attend but we had 113 children and probably 50 adults and all the children received 2 or more toys and there were some small toys left with the sisters of the clinic to give to those who couldn't make it.
There were also tamales left for them.
All in all it was a very successful event.
Now to see what we're going to do for the 10th anniversary one, wow, ten years and it all started as an idea to give to some 20-30 kids.
Thank you Baja Nomads, thank you, thank you.
Un fuerte abrazo de la familia Garcia para todos ustedes.
