We live in Clairemont near Discover Baja, but we drove down to TJ during our lunch break and got our tourist cards. We walked across with a bunch of
tequilla and goodies for the feds from the Duty Free. Much cheaper there, than in Baja. We had no problems at all.
As for crossing, we'll cross about 5:00-5:30. After consulting a buddy of mine in TJ, do not pull over for any flashing lights. He said the Feds and
local police chief are urging people, Mexicans alike, to drive slowely to the nearest federal building or police station. The police are not allowed
to pull anyone over on the toll road between TJ and Rosirito (article in the SD Union Tribune). The pressure has come from Donald Trump himself, for
his condo sales have been hurt by this criminal activity. Once at the police station, the police will NOT cite you for evading.
Anyway, we are leaving tomorrow. We are driving straight to Abre for a little surf and possibly Asuncion to meet some nomads. After a few nights,
its to San Basilio for some kayaking, then to Loreta Playa B & B for some R & R. On the way back, its Tuesday night at the Baja Cactus,
Wednesday Valle Guadulupe to buy some Thanksgiving wine, cross at Tacate and off to eat Turkey, drink our wine, look back on our trip, and take a
vacation from our vacation.
Hope to meet some of you. I drive a light brown Honda Element with extra large BFG AT/KO tires.
I will report when I return. I'm not taking the laptop or any other thing of value, besides my wife.
Adios,
