Help -border crossing in TJ on 2/2 to 2/5


Finally ready to head for Bahia De Los Angeles 2/5. Will X the border at TJ.
Vehicle= truck w/kayak pulling 30' airstream trailer
ttl lenght= 51 ft
:light:
- where do I park after xing to get my tourist card
- is a bank close by (w/o having to drive) to pay the fee
- buying mex insurance at a booth just before xing
- best time to x (8am,7am, to avoid complications w/anyone)
For SAFETY is anyone traveling w/rv, 5th, tt on 2/2/to 2/5 southbound who doesn't mind a tag along for a short distance to make certain nothing unexpected arises.

Okay Okay :lol::lol::lol:, this may seem strange but I've never xed with a trailer before. Only a 4x4 or a truck.
Any info on the above is much appreciated and will make this xing easier. tks.

Far right lane entering Mexico signed 'Something to Declare'... use I-805 going south... Stop in the covered secondary inspection area. Tell any officials that walk up you need tourist cards and have nothing to declare, if you don't. INM (immigration) office faces parking area... bank teller as well, for paying fee.

Get insurance online, before leaving for your trip at www.bajabound.com, see ad banner on top of Nomad... Print it out on your PC printer for the dates you will be in Baja... muy easy!
