As we stagger outside the brewery, Tijuana's finest knows Ken Cooke must be the one Nomad responsible for this!

Sylvia was next to get busted!!!

It was all in fun... the officers were part of our police escort arranged by Antonio (BajaCactus) so we 'Baja Nomads' could travel quickly across town... V.I.P. stuff!

Next stop was the Police Command and Control Center where a wall of live video images from cameras all around the city watch for trouble. They can zoom in on what is in somebody's hand from cameras hundreds of feet away.

The future of crime fighting is here... in Tijuana!

The last stop was the Los Arcos Restuarant where we had our own private room... and great samples of many of their seafood dishes, served in shells were provided.

Another surprise was that instead of 'one' drink with the price of dinner, we had 'all you can drink' beer and margaritas! Way to go Antonio!! Awfulart (wearing hat) is across from Max Kurillo... sitting past Art in the striped and in the yellow shirt was 'BajaAndBack' from Canada who joined our group at the restaurant, as did jeans and her mom.

Here I am with my fiance, Elizabeth... What a great day this was!

Viva Baja get-togethers have always been great... and with Baja Cactus joining in... and actually making it all happen in Mexico, this was fantastic!

Antonio and I both love bringing Baja loving people together to have a good time... So, I suggest you not miss the next one... and I can bet there will be a next one!:tumble::spingrin::yes::yes::yes:
