My sister-in-law forgot to bring her passport, and she got in w/ driver's license alone last week. Have a great trip.

I heard the tide in Penasco was very high- I have a report that last night it went about 10 feet linear feet above the old high tide line- closer to our house. I also heard the sand was washed out, but looks like it's being redeposited today. Any other updates.

One of the guys, Fransisco, who runs or works at Sonoran Desert Tours, mother got up at 3:00 a.m. to make the sandwiches. The bread- bollilos (sp?) were incredibally fresh and I think they had some green chili mayonaise with lettuce. I've tasted mantaray before, but this was really tender...

Last weekend, we had a beautiful hike up Pinacate with a group from Sonoran Desert Tours. They took us about an hour into the park, where we started the hike that Father Kino took to the top of Pinacate and discovered that Baja California was a pennisula rather than an island. My husband and I...

Mine took 2 weeks. Border Patrol told me to make a copy of the front page of your passport with your picture on it before you send it off. They accept that.

His trip was in 1940 when Europe was engaged in war, my favorite paragraph is:""Let us go into the Sea of Cortez, realizing that we become forever a part of it; that our rubber boots slogging through a flat of eel-grass, that the rocks we turn over in a tide pool, make us truly and permanently a...

We brought back our daughter from Penasco and she forgot her passport. We explained the situation and it wasn't a problem- although we got a little lecture. What are they going to do?

He said waits have been reduced to 2 hour waits currently- well that's because no one is going down there! When they say expansion to 5 lanes, I hope that doesn't include the 2 lanes they open up currently!

We hit the border at 6:00 on Sunday October 4th- 1.5 hour wait! 5 lanes open. I was glad to see more people in Penasco than we've seen for several months, but I wasn't happy about the wait. One of the lanes (over to the east side of the regular lanes) had a van COMPLETELY ripped apart- seats...

Sorry, I posted this twice.

Here's an interesting video on a "planned community" in Bahia San Jorge called Puerto Penasco Highland. It looks like what they did in Dubai. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zuxSj2RwB_k&feature=player_embedded#t=37 I'm curious how they'll get it approved with an environmental impact.

We were down this past weekend, and on Thursday night at about 10:00 p.m. we saw the waves lit up. At first I thought it was the full moon, but then I remembered it was a new moon, so we realized they were lit up from algea or plankton. We took our dogs down to the water, and everywhere they...
