Day 5 - Into the Baja

So, today, I will cross the border at the Chapparal Crossing between San Ysidro, CA and Tijuana, Mexico, Baja California (Norte).

Before I cross the border, I will stop just this side of the border and get my Mexican Insurance at Instant Mexico Auto Insurance - 223 Via De San Ysidro, San Ysidro, CA 92173. (619) 428-4714.

Then, I will cross into Mexico. The trick is that I have to stop at Immigracion and get my FMM Mexican Tourist Card/VISA stamped. Then, I will be completely legal for my trip down the the Baja.

Also, they're running the Baja 1000 down there right now, but I think that I will miss most of it as it is almost over, I think.

This will be a fairly short day, so I think that I will stop for lunch in Rosarito. Have a margarita and a shrimp cocktail down on the beach.
