Where is the best place to get your picture(s) taken for FM2/Visa? Cost? Directions? Tks.

Has anyone come across the border tonight? If so, how were the lines? Tks.

Our DD has to get an FMM as she is applying for an FM3 Monday morning. But they are completely goofed up and not crossing the border until about 8pm tonight. Does anyone know if she can get it at that time of night? Or can she apply for it down here at the same time she is applying for her...

Can anyone give me directions to the Banco Interacciones (coming from the Sandy Beach area). I've probably driven by it a lot and just never paid attention. Tks.

Does anyone know what/when events are planned for Independence Day? Last time out noticed the flags being put up on the streets - looked really nice. Have kids coming in and I'm sure they would enjoy going to some of the celebrations. Guessing there will be a lot of fireworks.

Our DD needs to get from Penasco to Phoenix the morning of Sept. 29. Both shuttle services have indicated they don't have anything going on that date - and other shuttle services she has tried to contact are apparently out of business. She could possibly leave the late afternoon before (trying...

Our son-in-law just made the trip down this afternoon. He said that a van in front of him got the red light and they were opening all the doors and checking inside. Then it was his turn - red light and alarm going off. He rolled down his windows, answered a few questions and was sent on his way...

Our daughter, son-in-law and grandson (age 13) came down for the first time ever. They were warned repeatedly about the dangers of going to Pensco - although no one who issued the warnings had ever been here. They ignored the warnings - then found out which "dangers" they should have been...

Has anyone driven from Vegas to Penasco since the Coastal Highway opened up? Kids are coming down next Sunday and map quest sent them from Vegas to San Luis and then on Highway 2 to Penasco (didn't show Coastal Highway). Not sure if this is faster/easier then going through Gila Bend from Vegas...

Has any one discovered a place that carries Parmesan cheese (and/or Cheddar)? Tks.

My DH likes certain US foods - Beanie-Weenies, Corn beef hash, Carrot cake, etc. Frozen foods (like Stoffers), etc. Does anyone know who might carry some of these types of can goods? I know Rocky Imports carrys a few - like Ragu Speg. mix - pan cake mix - some cake mixes (not carrot cake...

Does anyone know where to find Kitty treats - like "Temptations" down here? Super Ley used to have them every once in a while - but not for months now. El Gato has run out of his treats (not that he actually needs them but he drives us nuts if they aren't forecoming). I've ordered some on line...

Does anyone know of a good place to get donut down here that are ala Krispy Kreme or even Dunk' Donuts? DH has tried Super Ley, the Bodega, Candy Cake, a place just off of Freemont - none of them come close to his rememberence of Krispy Kreme.

If you haven't gone to one of the Tiburones' baseball games you are missing out on an old fashioned summer night memory. We went last night - splurged on the best seats in the house - behind home base - and paid $100 pesos (about $8 +/-) for the two of us. Met friends there - and met some new...

Does any one know what is happening with the Mall? Has building started back up?

It is soooo dangerous here - watched three little girls get their kite entangled in a palm tree & they couldn't get it undone. Before they could begin to wimper 2 of our guards showed up to come to their rescue and had the kite loose in minutes. The girls happily went back to the beach to fly it...

Just read on Numerouno where a boat with two fishermen (41 & 19) went missing yesterday - it was mentioned that they are going to have a place searching this morning - and ground searches (our prayers are with the missing fishermen, their families and the searchers). Has anyone heard anything...

Have a Western Tanager recovering on our deck - dazed from flying into the window. Read where they were suppose to be breeding in the forests in the North. Have noticed a flock of them on walks recently. Seems like in the early days we only saw "sea" birds and "desert" birds - i.e. sea gulls...

Last weekend we started to go to Mi Familia to try it out (6 of us) - the place was empty (Mare Blu had diners) - one look at the menu and we decided to go else where. The prices appeared to be higher then Arizona prices! Most people we asked about Mi Familia had commented, "I hear the food is...
