As I have read here before:
You will drop off your friend near the border... they walk across using the pedestrian entrance and you pick them back up on the other side...
Otherwise, use the normal entrance together.

It matters if you want suggestions for where to wait and he probably won't be waiting for you but, you'll be waiting for him. At SY that could be a
while.
Do you know your way around the end of the road at San Ysidro or Otay? My suggestion would be the Otay crossing and you, in your car, could wait in
the parking lot at immigration. You have Sentri so you know where that is.

this will be my first time to use sentri. i have never used otay, usually use san ysidro. when i get off san ysidro it's just the highway.
perhaps i could meet him at one of the parking lot at mcdonald's?

San Ysidro: Exit the first off ramp on the U.S. side and go to the Jack in the Box...it is real close to where the peds enter the U.S. (it is right
next to the trolly tracks)
