A friend just e mailed me and mentioned that Mex immigration was considering $220 in fines on non-returned visas.
Anybody else heard anything on this subject?????
Fines

The only time I had a problem was when they first changed the rule about turning in
the Visa when returning to the airport in Loreto. I paid a $25.00 fine. I don't think you have to turn them in if you drive back across the boarder
at Tijuana. But----I could be wrong. Where would you turn them in?

Will they put a stamp on our wrists so that we can get back in?
Stamp on the wrist???

HA! HA! That's funny!!
I do have an address that was sent to me that the visas are apparently supposed to be returned to.
I guess if you live right next door to Baja you would perhaps get a stamp on the wrist, giggle. I never thought of that, being from Canada and all, I
don't really have that option of going home and then back again within the alloted time frame. But, yeah, when you think of it that way, mailing it
back everytime you leave sounds a bit ridiculous. Maybe it is just a rumour.
I sure hope so.
Very Funny!

If they want their 'visa's" back, they should perhaps have someone at the border to collect them.? (I can imagine the traffic jam that would cause)
Time was (25 yrs. ago) if someone lost there visa and was at the airport trying to board (and didn't have it) they were detained, not borded, "no
fight, today Senor"
....mail them back? Don't think so....
Hey Frizkie

... nice to hear from you again. Sorry we had such a brief time at Tucker's; can't believe the way it worked out, right there next to each other and
all. Duh
Thought you might be interested to know I'll be heading back to La Paz in 10 days... poor me.
Hola Natalie Ann

Yeah, that was a very quick HI - BYE situation. As Tucker knows, I was looking forward to meeting you, and getting to know you a bit better than
time had allowed us. I think I didn't give myself quite enough time to drive in to LaPaz from Los Arbolitos that day. Perhaps we will have better luck
next year. Sure hope so.
I just returned to BC a couple of weeks ago, still not completly unpacked. But the Spring here is FANTASTIC! If you ever get a whim to come North a
bit lemme know. I've got lots of room.
Have a good trip back down to LaPaz, and don't forget to take down a supply of Extra Crunchy Peanut Butter for Tucker......muy importanto!!!! Also
give the new addition (Chico) a wee HUG from his auntie Barbi. Thanx
Have a good one
