    Boarder Crossing June 21 2012

    It is well marked at the beginning. Then we sort of followed the cars. Found the sign pointing to Penasco. We took a right at the detour - then I think it was a left at next road (or at least road where most cars seemed to be turning left) and drove a few blocks to the main road to Penasco. DH...

    Boarder Crossing June 21 2012

    Came across the border this afternoon and had the green light changed to red - same thing for guy behind us. All the slots were filled and they had us part on the right side of the road.

    Reporting Cheaters

    In some (too many) cases renters do not respect the property as much as owners do. The owner knows that if something outside his/her unit is damaged his HOA fees will go to repair/replace it. If this happens enough times his/her dues will go up. The renter, however, is out of there. So...

    Looking for a two bedroom condo at bella sirena or sonoran sea for june 10-14th

    I agree with you. When I ask for the total price I expect it to include taxes, fees, etc. I hate unpleasant surprises! We've worked with Castaways (us with buying and DS with buying & rental) and they have always been very good about responding quickly. The other thing is that Castaways insist...

    Looking for a two bedroom condo at bella sirena or sonoran sea for june 10-14th

    Owners who rent without using a rental agency are still responsible for paying the taxes (and the government is cracking down on that) and they are still responsible for paying the impact fees (and most complexes are cracking down on that too as it effects other owners). Just because they are...

    Where to shop by the resorts?

    We shop at Super Ley all the time. Staff is super nice. As said above, meat, veggies, bread, etc., are great, and usually less expensive then in the States. And I love the small limes (I just recently discovered that I can freeze them - then when I need one either let it sit for a while or pop...
