The shoes were brought to us by fantabulous baja nomader 4debaja, she had no problem at the border and I am so glad they were in the boxes, it just made the giveaway so much more fun .... some of these kids, I am positive, have never gotten brand new shoes in their lives. they are the youngest in their familes of 5 or 6 kids.

Sooooo fun being santa claus in May

Bajablanca what a wonderful thing Ya'll did! You must be mighty proud!

Regarding importation laws from China ect., you can import, but my understanding is the importation tax involved is in the multi-$$$$0's. Something to do with competition in labor cost?

yes, I think you are right Eli - my neighbors tell me Nuevo Leon is big on making shoes ... I just didn't know.

this Saturday we have a group of about 15 bikers coming from Guerrero Negro to stay overnight for the Sunday La Bocana mountain bike races .... and for free rooms they will be helping us clean up the entrance to La Bocana .. yowza .... this is gonna be great !!
