Tijuana


Hi there,
I just love this shot. I took it in Playas de Tijuana. What you can't see in the picture is that the weather wasn't as pleasant as it seemed. It was pretty cold and windy. Not exactly what you'd expect from a vacation in Mexico. But actually we didn't mind because we are not the kind of people who spend their vacation at the beach. Instead we drove down the Baja to Ensenada and back to Tecate where we crossed the border without problems. I never like borders. I always feel like a criminal. Although, you are treated better if you're blonde and light-skinned like me. Most Mexican citizens (or people who look like it) had to pop their trunks. On the other hand it is totally easy to enter Mexico. You don't have to fill out lengthy forms or answer curious questions. We will definitely visit Mexico again. Mexico is not as bad and dangerous as many people think. Of course, you should always apply a common-sense vigilance and, if you take your car with you, take out an insurance! Mexican traffic is crazy!
