Truth is it's still pretty bad unless you leave before 8am. Crossing back on Monday there are many people who have the same idea of small lines. Last Thanksgiving we spent in RP, 4 years ago, we left on Monday at 9am and still had a 1 hour wait.

My neighbor just got his trust for a place in Cholla Bay and he paid $8200. Ours was $7000 18 years ago

If you want cheap beer and pretty decent food, Bryan's has $1.50 drafts and $2.50 bottles. If you pay in Pesos it's even cheaper, they use a 13-1 exchange rate. So in reality you are getting draft beers for $1.15 and bottles for $1.85 assuming you bought $$ for 18.5 to 1 or more. Our bill...

After, a few attempts to be shaken down for the Mordida, lately in Sonatya, I do the 26mph (40kpm) crawl through town. It really pi#$#s off the locals and anyone behind me. That helps keep the crooked cops in-line. (Jerry's knowledge is still Gold here, even if he doesn't post anymore, along...

You can find pic's of alarm stickers on google and print them out or buy them online. Most of the stuff stolen ends up being sold on Sat and Sundays here. I found my stolen compressor at a street segunda 2 weeks later and bought it back for $75

Even just having Alarm stickers in the windows does wonders for keeping the baddies away. After I was robbed 3 years ago a security alarm and stickers seem to have taken care of the problem. But there isn't anything I can't replace, not having to deal with a Police report and Insurance claim is...

Joe, Mr. Fish was NOT open. That was upsetting. (They aren't open this week either) :(:(:( I was told by a couple of people who should know, that the Penasco health Dept gave Mr. Fish Taco a list of things to do so they could stay business. (that's one of the reasons Taco's Brisa has A/C now)...

Well I'm going down Saturday to be scared and frightened for a week. :)

Nice to see that, I miss not being part of JJ's sailboat races anymore, like my jet ski's better now.

This is what was posted on Numerouno-online regarding the incident that Google translated into English back in Post #4. View the attachment #7911 to see the screen shot of the article in the quote.

JJ's has Dish TV (Pac12 network) and I'm pretty sure Bryan's has it too.

Russ , I didn't think so, and on most forums having some thicker skin is useful. You are right, it is amazing how much less many things are in Guadalajara, PV, Mazatlan etc. When you experience pricing at other places in Mexico and are back in RP you go, "Why is it more here? were still in...

Russ, Was I just diss'd? If so. I was pointing out the economics of beer pricing and providing a few places that do have reasonably priced food and drinks (like $2-2.50 beers). Eventually, I will be visiting places in Mexico further from the border with nice ocean views, where you can eat and...

For the bars that still serve Pacifico at $3 a beer, equals almost a 500% profit. We know bars buy it for less than we can so a 700% profit is likely. The profit on other brands is the same. Since staying in a tourist town, us Gringos are a captive audience and the bars know this $3-3.50 beer...

When you're at JJ's you can ask the bartender to switch to what ever channel you like, just ask to have the sound turned up. Maybe not on football days if there is a big crowd

Tucson Beach in Cholla Bay is a well protected place to launch, (weekends get real busy with locals there). Even JJ's launch area is great but can get pretty busy on weekends.

This is the one I was talking about, it's Loli's on Sinoloa.

We saw a fox crossing the road to the resorts near Black Mountain close to the RR crossing last week at 7:30pm. A few years ago we saw one in the ravine/wash coming from Sandy Beach to Pinto Point in Cholla.
