| As long as I was in SoCal for Labor Day weekend, I decided to take advantage of the proximity of Mexico to pay a visit. Knowing that traffic backs up for miles near the border crossing, I parked about 10 miles away and took the Blue Line of the San Diego Trolley from there to the border. |
The train line ends in San Ysidro, California, where you can walk right into Mexico. Those driving can take hours to cross and most rental car companies won't let you.
 |
| Just follow the signs. The Customs facilities have been modernized. |
 |
| And after filling out an Immigration form and talking to an official, you're in! |
 |
| It's a cheap taxi ride to Ave. Revolution where you'll find bars, restaurants, souvenir shops and stores where Tijuana locals shop. |
 |
| Tijuana flea market. |
 |
| This bar called Ruta 3 was really popular! |
 |
| You can find all your favorite brands of gasoline in Mexico, as long as your favorite brand is Pemex! |
 |
| I stocked up on antibiotics since you never know when you might get sick. There are numerous farmicias throughout the city and for most things, you don't need a prescription. After a few hours in Mexico, it was time to head back! |
 |
| All I can say is no matter how long my trips are to other countries, it's always great to be back in the United States of America! |
