Rosarito, Mexico

Tony Scopel Posted onFebruary 5, 2014May 27, 2019 Comments are off

The day started with a two hour drive to the Tijuana, Mexico border. On this particular day the lines were fairly short and the crossing took only minutes verses hours. From what I have heard and somewhat witnessed, the best time to drive across the border is during the week between two and four o’clock in...
