Mexico for the rest of the winter then Canada in the spring?

[Tobias Duncan]

If ever there was a year to travel outside this US , this is it.

The dollar is strong and predicted to get stronger. 20.65 pesos to the dollar this morning. If we cross in groups and drive several hours south to get past all the border madness we should be perfectly safe.
Swimming
Snorkeling
Fishing
Surfing
Beer


Then in the spring we head north. Some analysts think the CAD will go down as low as .65 to the USD.
Once again we can cross the boarder in groups early in the morning then drive all day to safety.
Its the 150th birthday for Canada and they are inviting americans to come check out all of their national parks for FREE during 2017.
My understanding is they have beer up there as well.

It really depends on what part of Canada you were talking about but generallg "spring" to us 'Mericuns usually should mean June in Canada, unless you were wanting to see snow.

Yeah! We're headed to Baja in January, back in April, then in north to Alaska in late May through the summer. It's the perfect time to do these trips. The price of gas is down too.

[Microbusdeluxe]

We're Baja bound in Jan. Planning on staying through Feb. Maybe we'll see you down there. Look for the white hightop syncro.

Crossing the boarder at mexicali in the next day or two. Any nice spots near San Felipe you guys can recommend?
Peso is at 20.88
Will be keeping an eye out for westys.

[blackglasspirate]

We're heading down there in the next few weeks as well. In Maine right now and plan to start the trek down this week, wash the New England salt off and then get a nice coating of Pacific Ocean salt. We went through Tijuana last year but will be going through Mexicali this time.

Don't drink all the beer or catch all the fish before I get there.

Anyone heading to san felipe should be warned that the bank is having a problem with ATMs not giving americans any money
I hope I can resolve it in the morning or I am gonna be broke in mexico...

[crazyvwvanman]

Which bank, Bancomer or Banamex? Banamex is part of Citibank.

[Tobias Duncan]

bancomer .
The lady that runs the little rv park here sent me over there. Its right off the beach but I got there right before closing and they said they have been having problems all month.
Going to try cali-mex in the morning.

[E1]

I could chip in and wire you a little if it'd help.

You can pay me back at KTAO.

Thanks for the support guys.
Flush with cash now but not without some adventure!
Now the big deal is the gasoline strike.
Pemex raised the price of gas by 20% on January 1 and people are freaking out.
There has been a run on fuel. Might think about staying here or maybe gonzaga until things settle down a bit.

[E1]

Damned good thing you put that Prius motor in 'er.
