<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Kentucky, post: 2905096, member: 33176&quot;]Hard to believe this thread is almost 5 years old...&nbsp; Actually we had a very nice trip.&nbsp; We stayed at a motel close to the border (on the US side), drove down and parked at the border and walked over.&nbsp; It seemed the same as it did before,&nbsp; walking down Revolucion with the shopkeepers grabbing your arm...&quot;It&#039;s cheap inside&quot;, but no coins.&nbsp; Finally my wife found a piece of pottery she was looking for and we headed back on the other side of the street.&nbsp; I found three places that had coins, one called the Kentucky Gift Shop, so I bought a 1945 peso (overpriced) there.&nbsp; [USER=15199]@desertgem[/USER] three hours in line, and then at the border, the guard asked to see my passport but I hadn&#039;t brought it.&nbsp; He asked how I intended to get back into the US and I offered my CA driver&#039;s license.&nbsp; He said &quot;It&#039;s been awhile since you have been to Mexico, hasn&#039;t it?&quot;&nbsp; Turns out a passport is required.&nbsp; After he hasseled me a bit, he let me through.&nbsp; Fun stuff.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
