Villa, is it possible you could share Woody's load and meet him at the border and drive the box to Baja Pack without needing detailed instructions in your home town? :lol:
Woody, you'd still have to make a R/T through the border.

Villa, please check your u2u in the upper right corner.

It's the mall/? where the ABC bus station is located on the perimeter. There are some kick-ass bars in there as well.

On Google earth I found both locations. The one at the main Bus Station, though farther from the border, seems easier to find. The one right on the border doesn't show on Google street view, and the neighborhood doesn't look right for the business. That image is 5 years old. No McDonalds, no mall. It is near the "dead cat" memorial along the fence. Am I looking in the right place?

Keep an eye on u2u guys.

OK Omar, I surely trust you. No problem hermano! Google Earth and Baja Pack's address there are sure confusing.

No,no,no Vgbndo. Thats the office they have near the Tijuana airport. Thats to far away from the san ysidro border.
No wonder it was strange to me that the mcdonalds wasnt in the border. Thats the last place the gringos visit before they cross to the US. lol.

Woody, I think there is a screw-up on G E. I'm sure Omar knows the mall and the location. It must be right at the San Isidro crossing very near the bus depot.

OK here it is Woody. The green circle is McDonalds as shown on Omar's link, and the red one is the output from the pedestrian crossing to Mexico.

Yes, San Ysidro. Here's a blow up for context. The new Mexican POE on the upper left.
