When INS official Lauren Mack lost her wallet in Tijuana on the weekend, she had no hope of recovering it. Then she got a call from the Mexican
Consulate informing her that a taxi driver had found it in his cab, full of cash and credit cards. The driver, Antonio Quesada, wouldn't take any
reward, saying he was just happy to be able to return it to her. As for Mack, "My faith in human nature was restored," she says. "It was truly a
miracle."

I'll never forget the day 20 years ago, when I fell in love with the people of the City of La Paz. I went with some friends to the Bismark
restaurant for my first time, leaving my backpack with a few hundred dollars in cash and my plane ticket in the cab that took us there, and not
realizing it until the bill came due. There I was in a state of panic and general bad humor that my vacation had just ended, when up comes the guy
with the backpack and every penny.
It's been twenty years, but I still bet you most of the taxistas in La Paz would still do the same. They are a tight group and have high standards,
even if they do give ya white knuckles occasionally on the guard rail-less road to Tecolote sometimes. There are more than a few of them that have
had that job for the last 20 years I've been goin' down.
However, to have a taxi driver in Tijuana do the same thing is definitely a mind-blower!-Stephanie
