And then put sharks with frickin' lasers mounted on their heads around the whole island...
Have you been recently? Our factory is there. An impressive one at that where we build some of the finiest comercial and industrial HVAC units to be found. I'm talking about package air handling systems the size of a house, and we do it all day long 24/7. Our Electrical and Mechanical and Refrigeration Engineers are well qualified 'Mexicans'. My perspective on a lot of the drivel I personally have been spoon fed in the past has changed considerably.
You know, my dad didn't want me to take German in high school.....He said "Spanish is what you'll need to know in the future". I didn't listen, didn't take German either! I really wish I'd taken, and actually LEARNED Spanish! I could understand what all those folks are saying, order food in Spanish, and, if they were making fun of me when I hear the Hispanic's talking to each other!
Neither do I...lolI just personally have no desire to travel there.
I agree with you in that you haven't experienced the "real Mexico" until you have left the outskirts of those border and tourist towns. Anyone who spends a week bar hopping in Puerto Vallarta hasn't really "seen Mexico". I also think that it's a lot safer outside those kinds of towns (unless you get deep into some cartels poppy fields or something..) scammers and criminals who make their living by taking advantage of unsuspecting tourists naturally gravitate to those kinds of places.

Going to TJ, not for me. Mainly because that "Adventurous" side of me has gone away some years ago. Also the money it would take to go there is already used up for our preferred vacation every year. I don't really have the desire to go out of country at all. For me there are so many little canyons, towns, highways, roads, that I've never seen that I want to see, right here in America. I don't much want to go places where a whole bunch of people go to see things. Bull fights are probably not my thing, but I wouldn't mind watching one. Hell, how many hunters shoot and mortally wound a deer/elk and and have to track it for a half a mile while it slowly bleeds to death? That's not inhumane?
After reading your first post here I decided to take a trip to TJ, VIA Google Earth/Maps. I checked things out along the border all the way to El paso! What A different fricken world that looks like down there! I haven't been anywhere desert like except the high desert across Southern Idaho since before 1983.
Captain O, at our age if we have something that puts us in our special place, we NEED to do that. I'm envious of your enthusiasm to get out and do something like this! And don't let any website staffers get to ya'. Sounds like "Time O' the Month" for some here. Maybe it's the Christmas doldrums or something. When you get that trip be sure and take some pics to show here. I'm sure some will appreciate them.
So what you're saying is.... I can get FOUR fried chickens, dry white toast, and a coke... for the price of one?
I went back and read your posts. You weren't one of the folks I might have been thinking of when I posted. Sorry if you thought so.
