We crossed the border today at Tecate. There was no one in sight. No young Mexican with big guns to check through our moho. What a difference from last year. But last year we crossed at Calexico, a busier border crossing. We carried on into town – needed to change some dollars into pesos and needed diesel for the moho. We didn’t over stay our welcome in this town, there’s not much to see – only the Tecate brewery – but we wanted to get on down the road to Ensenada. Ensenada is a large city – we drove all over – they even have Wal-Mart, Costco and Home Depot. There’s a place just out of Ensenada called Punta Banda. It is the focal point of this tourist zone, so we had to go see it.
La Bufadora is a natural geyse
r that, on some days, blasts more than 50 feet high. It is tucked in a narrow cove at the base of rocky cliffs. There are food stands and souvenir shops that line the streets to the main attraction (La Bufadora), but were closed when we got there. We were just too early – they were just beginning to open. Too bad (for me that is)….. the people tell us that in the summer on weekends it gets extremely crowded and unless you arrive very early you may not even find parking…
