Ok, here it is, if you were to get re directed or they have blocked it off because of traffic.
Just kkep going as they indicated (Note: They do not indicate go to Otay), just go to the cultural center and make a right
If that is blocked off, go to the next one at Plaza Rio. Just keep attempting to make a right.
We use Otay only if there are 500 cars waiting in San Ysidro and only 50 at Otay, other than that it's always better in San Ysidro and I am so
convinced of that, that if I was comming from the new Blvd 2000 I would go down to San Ysidro instead of Otay, if you need a map for that, just let me
know, they are only $1 dolar a piece

Thanks for the maps, they are a big help. I hear that there is a way of getting the wait times at the border if you down in Mexico. Is there a way to
find out which is quicker before you get to any particular crossing?

By the way, everytime I come back from Rosarito on the toll road , I always get screwed up trying to find the San Ysidro crossing and end up in
downtown TJ. Where am I making the wrong turn, is at that circle coming from La Playa?

If you stay on the Toll Road, over the hill and down through town on Second Ave., you will run right into the lanes that put you right into it. Pay
attention to the signs if you dare take your eyes off traffic.

How's that Again ?
One need never feel badly about incorrectly spelling a Mexican town name. I've seen more than a few "official" government signage that does the same.
Some of them remain up for years.
Waste not, want not, I guess.

We can only hope.
We can also hope that the same brain-trust that designed the new Tecate crossing won't be involved with this one. Otherwise, we may see thirty lanes
fighting to get through one gate.

From Rosarita, just follow the signs to Son Diega. They are in Inglish for visitors.
If you desire better signage in Mexico, just write to Mexico City to the president of the country. He will want to make every effort to make Mexico
more accomodating for you.

Say's who, K..? If you're going by the US Customs website, you will always be disillusioned. They tell you what they want you to know, rarely
accurate. Did you ever meet one at the gate that had a foremost concern for your convenience?
