San Ysidro Crossing Map
I know this has posted before, but I can't find it by searching. Can anyone direct me to a map to facilitate the Tijuana crossing?
I thought I saw one here as well as a satellite photo (Google Maps?)
My daughter is driving down and it's her first crossing by herself.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Bowser, have a look at this page with photos of the signs and road from the border to Rosarito... gets you through Tijuana fas and easy with almost no
city traffic!: http://www.rosaritobeachhotel.com/directions_to_rosarito.php
Here are the 9 direction photos from that site:

David, you never cease to amaze me with your knowledge and dedication to this board.
I am just waiting for some of these idiots who have nothing better to do with their lives than argue, respond to these maps calling you an ill
advised human being for having the toll road toll wrong by a few centavos!
David, keep up the good work and to all you unhappy people, get a life and keep the venom spewing over nothing off this board.

Thank you Howard!
Hey, as Lincoln said "You can't please all the people, all the time"!
Seriously, I don't hate anyone here and try to be friendly... Maybe that's why I get bothered when people post thing about me that I never said. I
will always try and play nice... I just think if one Nomad can post the 'big-government' way of doing stuff, another should be able to post the
'private citizen' way without the nasty follow-ups? I am for people living their lives as free and as happy as possible without taking from others.

OK...I will. Try to pay a toll with those ten and twenty centavo coins and they won't let you through. They don't want that pocket trash either.

ummmmm,
picture says-
" Toll is approx. $2.30 UDS"
Howard is waiting for sometroll to pop up and say "the toll is $2.35 USD not $2.30.....you idiot!".
meaning the picture is off by a few centavos?
woody and dennis.....ya lost me there......
But I do have that same post/link saved in my favs from a few months ago.
thanks again DK
Bowser, I've found the search engine to be pretty particular, even misspelling on the original post or the search will not get good results. When you
get the one you want, add it to your favorites! I've had to re-search for a post because I didn't save it.
Hope your daughter has a ball! YOUGOGIRL!

I think we're on the same page, but Dennis threw something out there about the toll booths not accepting coins ?

Well, there wasn't much to lose there, Nuts. Woody didn't see any mention of tolls anywhere so I just wanted to accomodate my bud by mentioning the
tolls.
See what I mean? A big nuthin. That's all it was. Nuthin.

Not all coins, Nuts. Just those little teeny useless coins.
Again, nuthin. Absolutly nuthin.
People seem a little touchy tonight. Full moon out there???
