When I read the Forum posts on Mx there were quite a few that were very negative but there haven't been many in 2009. Have "things" improved or has everyone stopped going?
I went to Baja, all the way to Todos Santos last March and everything was fine... in fact there are hardly any tourists... mostly a few folks on motorcycles like us but the motels and restaurants were pretty empty. Once we got 100 miles south of the border I didn't bother to even lock up my helmet.
Now we are talking about going to San Carlos for a few weeks in a few weeks. Again, get up early and get 100 miles South of the border, then relax and have a great time is what the state department says. I guess the drug cartels sleep in until mid afternoon.
Does anyone know if we can skip the RV vehicle registration for Sonora as far as San Carlos but register the toad so we can do a day trip to Alamos?
We plan to get insurance thru Costco as they have lower prices than anyone else, as far as I know...?
One more Q, if we cut over on Hiway 2 to avoid the Nogales US customs, does that work better? Is the hiway ok?
thanks, G.
