DK should be estatic! Haven't heard anyone else mention it any where. Would be nice for the short visits, with family and friends it can get
pricey. People had to get FM-Ts to go to M's BBBB get-to-gethers, if at Cielito Lindo. Wonder it the same distance requirements are going to be in
effect. That could be a drag if YES.
On Amigos board huh? Guess I missed it - going to look now.

Ijust received this email from Fred Jones, Gloria Jones of Club Vagabundos del Mar
Steve - Thanks for your email of January 22. We always proceed to
confirm such reports in the media. Today I spoke with Tourism officials
in Baja who have seen the same reports and have checked with Migracion
in Tijuana about them. The word is that nothing has changed. Both the
72-hour provision and the fee still remain intact. We had just spent
$6,000 for a new supply of pre-paid FMTs and were more than a little
interested. Based on the assurances I have received, we are now
proceeding to spend another $6,000 to double our holdings. We do
appreciate your thoughtfulness in letting us know so promptly. Best
Regards, VP/GM Fred Jones
