Jim, how about a report on what you saw of the Baja 500?

You should drive across Tijuana on a Friday afternoon, around 5:30pm, thats a nightmare!!

I've seen some of the Friday evening incoming traffic and it isn't pretty.....

I was stunned....

to fly past the vendor shacks to the end of the line about 20 cars long on a Tijuana Sunday night about 8:15. :bounce::bounce:

I had spent the day (breakfast at La Espada?a) power-shopping with friends and came back loaded with a fountain and some large terra cota items.

I had braced myself for a long wait...this being Sunday and the vendors looked very unhappy as everyone whizzed by. :(:(
