There is much more to see and do and eat in San Diego, if you do a little reading without the hassle of the Border Control.

Better beaches, sights. Animal Park, ZOO, safer, same fast food outlets, etc
I stopped going to TJ after 9/11 and don't miss it.
Take a drive up the coast Beach towns, and enjoy it more without worrying about being set up by the Police for a ticket. You will even find Mexican restaurants with good safe foods! ^
There is one thing I miss, the Bakery's, where you take a tray and thongs walk around and pick up great tasting treats of many different flavors and kinds with the sweet sugary airy crap we get here. :-::-::-:
I keep hoping I will find such a place in San Diego someday for occasional treats.
Do a SEARCH for TJ, Tijuana.
There are other strings in the past with more information.
