Heard on the radio a couple of hours ago, KPBS San Diego, that a traffic alert has been issued for southbound traffic at the border. 5 and 805 are/were backed up with Mexico bound traffic.

I wonder how many FMMs will be issued. :lol:

Been a long time coming. All that cartel activity really screwed the economy.

Just a few years ago, when the cartel activity was really very high in TJ,
we went into Puerto Nuevo around dinner time on our trip to Ensenada for the night on our way to Cabo. We were the ONLY patrons around 6pm. The town was deserted. I really hope that this is a harbinger of better times.

The tourist traffic is back as it ever was in it's best days. Tough to find a parking spot, and at Villa Ortega's it is valet parking only and cars are triple stacked.

Things are jumping in Rosarito Beach. Restaurants packed, the beaches are full of campers, Music festivals at numerous spots, traffic backed up everywhere, and people with big smiles on their faces. The weather is perfect with morning fog but clearer by afternoon.
