Directions to La Mision from Tecate taking Blvd 2000.
Especially just as you cross the Tecate border. I've only gone across at the Tecate border once and I turned the wrong way and ended up on the old
road. I want to tell my family coming from Parker how to come in at Tecate and then take Blvd 2000 to us. Thanks for your help, k

Keri, here it is from 2007: http://forums.bajanomad.com/viewthread.php?tid=24396
The log:
MEXICO at Otay Border: Mile 0.0, Time 0:0
Head straight south, staying in left lanes. Follow signs for TECATE.
LEFT TURN at signal, slight curve to left just before signal: Mile 1.1, Time 0:03
Heading east on Blvd. Industrial... soon becomes divided highway!
Take new highway south, signed for Rosarito, Popotla, Ensenada (toll highway 2-D to Tecate curves to left, see toll gate, Big Horn Sheep monument
almost unseen heading south): Mile 6.0, Time 0:13
Free Hwy. 2 (TECATE) interchange, continue south then southwest: Mile 13.0, Time 0:22
Cross the Rodriguez/ Tijuana reservoir and head into the hills...
Pass under the toll highway (Mex. 1-D) and come to the free highway (Mex. 1)... Mile 31.3, Time 0:38.
They will have it connected to the toll highway, but that work seems stalled. Too bad, but until then go a few miles on the free road to almost Puerto
Nuevo where you can hop on the toll road for free.
Fox Baja Studio entrance is just to your right, Puerto Nuevo and access onto the toll highway is about 6 miles to your left.

Sorry, when I see Blvd. 2000, I naturally think of the Otay crossing!
From Tecate, drive down (south) from the border to the main east/ west street (facing the park)... and turn right (west). This is the old Hwy. 2 free
road to Tijuana... Just take it to BLVD. 2000.

"From Tecate, drive down (south) from the border to the main east/ west street (facing the park"
That's kind of vague.
Drive through the border gate and just go straight for two blocks. That's where you turn right, as David said, on Benito Juarez.
